Abstract:Off-grid PV systems have been proposed as a panacea for economies with poor electricity access, offering a lower-cost “leapfrog” over grid infrastructure used in higher-income economies. However, reliability and carbon pricing impacts have been omitted from work that examines pathways to electricity access, underplaying the potential of off-grid PV. We perform high-resolution geospatial analysis on universal household electricity access in Sub-Saharan Africa that includes these aspects via least-cost pathways … Show more
