Closing the void in energy planning modeling: Integrating local realities
Source abstract
Abstract
African electricity access shortfalls have prompted multiple energy planning models to suggest rapid deployment of low-carbon pathways. Instead of being data driven, these scenario-based models often rely on assumptions and political targets. Recently in Nature Energy, Alova et al. propose a solution for integrating local factors into energy planning models.
