Productive Use of Energy 2.0: New Scaling Opportunities and Innovations in the Sector

The study takes stock of the evolving PUE landscape and discusses how to unlock large-scale deployment. It aims to support governments, development banks, donors and project developers in understanding new opportunities and promising business models. Thanks to the emergence of new actors in the private sector, supplying hardware and appliances for sale and for use, PUE is evolving to a “2.0” era.

Scenarios for the Energy Transition

Energy scenarios developed in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) are not limited to technical and economic parametres but increasingly include social and environmental factors that reflect the complexities of a clean energy transition. This is one of the findings recognised in this report which summarises the webinar series Long-Term Energy Scenarios (LTES) for Developing National Clean Energy Transition Plans in Latin America and the Caribbean jointly organised by IRENA, UN ECLAC and GET.transform in 2021.

Nigeria Case Study: Financing Instruments for the Mini-Grid Market

This GET.transform case study illustrates Nigeria’s successful approach to establishing large-scale mini-grid programmes. One of the success factors in Nigeria is the development of strong financing instruments, on top of a series of power sector reforms and regulations in place for the development of mini-grids. Nigeria uses both performance based grants and minimum subsidy tenders, with result-based financing (RBF) instruments used under both the Nigeria Electrification Project (NEP) and the Rural Electrification Fund (REF), to guarantee consistency in reimbursement of developers’ costs.

A Renewable Energy Mini-Grid Technical Assistance Guide

Building on 15 years of support in mini-grid development, GET.transform on behalf of GIZ developed new guidance on creating effective frameworks for renewable energy mini-grid deployment. The report describes the kind of technical assistance (TA) needed to kickstart a mini-grid market and illustrates essential findings leading the way towards a new understanding of the role and aim of mini-grid technical assistance (TA).

Uganda Case Study: A Bundled Approach to Mini-Grid Tendering

This GET.transform case study describes the development of the mini-grid framework in Uganda. The framework is particularly interesting because it integrates several of the main building blocks of mini-grid development, such as planning, financing, licensing and procurement, under a single process and facilitates multi-site development.

Sierra Leone Case Study: A Cost-Reflective Mini-Grid Tariff Framework

Through the split asset mini-grid model, Sierra Leone was among the first countries in Sub-Saharan Africa to initiate a close collaboration between the public sector, private mini-grid investors and international organisations for the large-scale deployment of mini-grids. In this case study, GET.transform explores the success factors of Sierra Leone’s mini-grid framework.

Ethiopia Case Study: Integrating Off-grid Technologies into Electrification Planning

This GET.transform case study describes the rural electrification framework in Ethiopia. Recognising that the success of off-grid electrification rests upon solid planning, the Government of Ethiopia developed an updated version of its National Electrification Program (NEP 2.0) in 2019. Ethiopia uses a digitalised master planning approach with numerous tools and cross-checks to designate the most suitable access technology per community throughout the country. The strength of the master plan lies in the combination of a geospatial mapping with cross-referenced and digitised baseline data.
