“…In cases where little state support is provided and market mechanisms are used, the ethics and inclusivity of these projects are often questioned (Catney et al 2014;Taylor Aiken et al 2017). Incorrect policy design can lead to substantial problems in communitydriven projects in energy auctions (Tews 2018), as well as projects where communities only receive a portion of profits (Bristow et al 2012;Wlokas et al 2017). Designs of off-grid energy projects also need to grasp social dynamics if they are to ensure the sustainability of the initiative, with a holistic and transdisciplinary approach required (Brent and Rogers 2010).…”

“…This is why the ED literature can be said to embrace such a wide range of emergent forms (even though not all actors -nor those who analyse them -use the 'ED' label to self-identify their practices), from remunicipalization (Becker, Beveridge and Naumann, 2015;Moss, Becker and Naumann, 2015;Becker and Naumann, 2017;Routledge, Cumbers and Derickson, 2018) to cooperatives (Bolinger, 2005;Nolden, 2013;Yildiz, 2014;Bauwens, Gotchev and Holstenkamp, 2016;Kalkbrenner and Roosen, 2016;Van Der Schoor, Van Lente, Scholtens and Peine, 2016;Mey and Diesendorf, 2018), to community energy in various parts of the world (Seyfang, Park and Smith, 2013;Strachan, Cowell, Ellis, Sherry-Brennan and Toke, 2015;Magnani and Osti, 2016;MacArthur and Matthewman, 2018;Madriz-Vargas, Bruce and Watt, 2018) and partnerships of various kinds (Bolinger, 2005;Davies, Swilling and Wlokas, 2017;Wlokas, Westoby and Soal, 2017).…”

“…South Africa's Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPP) has not only the potential to reduce carbon emissions in energy production but holds the promise of contributing to local economic development efforts (Wlokas et al 2017). In order to better understand this impact, this qualitative case study and thematic analysis scrutinised the community engagement endeavours of a wind farm initiated under the REIPPP.…”
