“…It was developed and first implemented in New Zealand around 1925 (Mandeno, 1947), then it spread to Australia (Nobbs, 2012). Further, it has been implemented in Sri Lanka (Mahanthege, 2015), Brazil (Luciano et al, 2012), Namibia (Himmel and Huysen, 2002), South Africa (Kessides et al, 2007), Tunisia (Cecelski et al, 2005), Ghana (Iliceto et al, 1989) and Uganda (Bakkabulindi et al, 2012;Bakkabulindi et al, 2009;Da Silva et al, 2001). Realizing the potential of SWER, some researchers suggested it as a feasible electrification for a settlement in Rwanda (Solange, 2017); Tanzania (Irechukwu, 2020;Irechukwu and Mushi, 2021;Meijer, 1995); a minigrid extension in Uganda (Bakkabulindi, 2012); and a future rural electrification plan for Nigeria (FMPWH, 2016).…”
