Project to explore revenue possibilities for solar mini-grids in SSA
- The initiative will explore ways for solar mini-grids in SSA to generate revenue, via electric mobility, agriculture, and community services
The article from ESI Africa discusses a collaborative project between the University of Strathclyde and the University of Dundee, aimed at exploring revenue possibilities for solar mini-grids in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). This initiative, supported by the Royal Academy of Engineering, focuses on addressing the financial sustainability of solar mini-grids by examining how these systems can generate income beyond just providing electricity. The project will look into integrating productive uses of energy, such as agriculture, small-scale manufacturing, and other local economic activities, to enhance the economic viability of mini-grids. It also plans to develop business models that could potentially increase the adoption and success rate of solar mini-grids in rural areas where grid extension is not feasible or cost-effective. The research will involve field studies, stakeholder engagement, and the creation of a framework for revenue generation that could be replicated across SSA.
