Abstract:
Small firms dominated the American economy in the nineteenth century, and they still dominate in many developing economies today. This paper tests whether geographic market segmentation due to underdeveloped intracity transportation technology precludes the emergence of large retail/wholesale stores. I exploit the natural experiment of Boston’s rapid electrification from its previous horse-drawn streetcar system, which occurred between 1889 and 1896. Analyzing newly digitized data, I find that rail-connected locations experienced a sharp decline in the share of sole proprietorships among food retail/wholesale establishments after the electrification relative to off-rail locations. Changes in market access due to streetcar electrification can explain this effect. (JEL L25, L81, L92, N71, N91, R41)

Abstract:
The process of electrification of the Polish railways took place from 1936 till early 1990s. Despite the political constraints of the post-war times, the decisions on electrification of particular sections of the railway network were usually based on economic factors. In 1970s and 1980s so called electrification thresholds were used to justify the need for electrification of railway line in question. They took into the number of tracks (single-track lines, double-track lines), terrain conditions (flat terrain, upland terrain) and the traffic structure (the share of passenger traffic) into account. In the framework of National Railway Program till 2023 (KPK) the realization of electrification projects have been undertaken again. The present paper deals with importance of the operational criteria in the decision-making concerning justification of electrification of railway lines. These criteria include the shortening of the journey times on particular sections, shortening of stops on the stations with the change of the type of traction, the savings of train operating companies resulting from the traction unification (change of demand for rolling stock and for workshops for its servicing), improvement of reliability and punctuality of services.

Abstract:
AbstractJapan’s long-term strategy submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change emphasizes the importance of improving the electrification rates to reducing GHG emissions. Using the five models participating in Energy Modeling Forum 35 Japan Model Intercomparison project (JMIP), we focused on the demand-side decarbonization and analyzed the final energy composition required to achieve 80% reductions in GHGs by 2050 in Japan. The model results show that the electricity share in final energy use (electrification rate) needs to reach 37–66% in 2050 (26% in 2010) to achieve the emissions reduction of 80%. The electrification rate increases mainly due to switching from fossil fuel end-use technologies (i.e. oil water heater, oil stove and combustion-engine vehicles) to electricity end-use technologies (i.e. heat pump water heater and electric vehicles). The electricity consumption in 2050 other than AIM/Hub ranged between 840 and 1260 TWh (AIM/Hub: 1950TWh), which is comparable to the level seen in the last 10 years (950–1035 TWh). The pace at which electrification rate must be increased is a challenge. The model results suggest to increase the electrification pace to 0.46–1.58%/yr from 2030 to 2050. Neither the past electrification pace (0.30%/year from 1990 to 2010) nor the outlook of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (0.15%/year from 2010 to 2030) is enough to reach the suggested electrification rates in 2050. Therefore, more concrete measures to accelerate dissemination of electricity end-use technologies across all sectors need to be established.

Abstract:
Road transport is responsible for 22% of the total CO2 emissions, 39% of NOx emission and 10% share of particulate matters (PM10, PM2.5) emission. The use of passenger cars, as an extremely dominant category of vehicles, is at constant growth, which causes an increase or insufficient reduction of Greenhouse Gas emission, despite the technological improvements of exaust emission devices. Due to the growing harmful effects on the environment and human health, as well as the recent scandals associated with internal combustion engine tehcnology („Dieselgate scandal”), development of new technology is fast forward toward electric vehicles.The biggest automotive corporations plans dominant fleet electrification in the next 10 years. However, sudden share increase of the electric vehicles in the traffic flow can lead to the capacity overcoming of the electricity grid network, or the issue of the "ecological footprint" of such a trend. In this paper, the overall environmental impact (so-called Well-to-Wheel analysis) of the increasing number of electric vehicles was analysed. Comparison analysis of vehicles equipped with internal combustion egines and electric vehicles showed the absence of Greenhouse Gass emisson reduction in countries with low percentage of electricity gained from renewable energy sources. Well-to-Wheel analysis was also conducted for several scenarios of electric vehicles participation in traffic flow in Republic of Serbia i.e their influence on electricity grid network and its emission.

Abstract:
This study applies a partial equilibrium forest sector model to analyse the impacts of biofuel deployment for road transport in the Nordic countries, when alternative use of the biomass resources and transport sector electrification are considered. We foresee a strong electrification of the transport sector, resulting in a demand for biofuels of approximately 2.5 billion L in 2035 and 1 billion L in 2050 in a 100% fossil-free base scenario. The simultaneous increase in demand from pulping industries and biofuel will cause an overall increase in wood use, of which the biofuels share will constitute approximately 20–25%. The utilization of harvest residues will increase more than 300% compared to the current level, since biofuel production will reallocate some of the current raw material used in district heating. Biofuel consumption in road transport will likely reduce after 2040 due to increasing electrification, but it is plausible that the declining domestic demand will be replaced by increasing demand from international biofuel markets in aviation and shipping. The main uncertainties in the scenarios are the future costs and profitability of forest-based biofuel technologies and the public acceptance of the close to 100 TWh of new renewable electricity production needed for the electrification of Nordic road transport.

Abstract:
The electrification of cooking methods in Korea was investigated to understand the impact of different cooking methods on energy use and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the building sector. Annual household cooking energy consumption was compared for the Nowon Energy Zero House Project, a zero-energy housing complex using induction cooktops, and a sample of households that used natural gas for cooking. The results showed that the former consumed less calories (a difference of 2.2 times) and emitted less GHGs (a difference of 2.6 times) compared to gas cooking households. A countrywide scenario analysis was conducted by combining the share of electric cooking households with the projected power generation mix in 2030. Under the 2030 Policy scenario for power generation, and with an electricity cooking share of 20%, cooking-related GHG emissions were projected to be 3.79 million t CO2/year; 3.8% (150,000 t CO2/year) lower than those in the present day, despite a total population increase. The electrification of cooking methods in Korea has the potential to reduce both the energy demand of the building sector and GHG emissions, in synergy with the decarbonization of the power generation sector.

Abstract:
Although Britain's electrification started with considerable technological and market advantages, it proceeded remarkably slowly and hesitantly. Using share-price data, this study investigates the conventional explanations for this disappointing outcome: notably, perverse regulation and competition from entrenched gas-light providers. It finds that these oft-cited factors had an imperceptible impact on the course of the British electrical industry's turbulent market launch in 1882. However, we show that, owing to the fledgling electrical industry's need for incessant experimentation, short-sighted, self-serving decisions by the management of the early British industry's most prominent firm squandered a well-funded start, with long-lasting adverse consequences.

Abstract:
Renewable energy systems (RES) are currently being deployed on a large scale to meet the ambitious sustainable development goals for the next decades. A higher penetration of sustainable means of power production passes through the diffusion of RES-based distributed energy systems. The hybridization of such systems and their integration with Energy Storage Systems (ESS) can help improve reliability and level the mismatch between power production and consumption. In this paper, a novel modular tool for the simulation of distributed energy systems is presented by means of its application to a case study. The considered system is composed by PV modules, ESS and heat pumps. The optimal sizing of the components for self-consumption has been obtained through an electricity production cost minimization. A comparison between two different configurations has been conducted: in the first case, the thermal load is completely satisfied by a natural gas-fired boiler, while in the latter case, part of the thermal load is satisfied by a heat pump. The results have highlighted the impact of ESS on the economics of distributed energy systems and how the investment in such systems, in conditions similar to the case study, can be more easily sustained if a share of the total energy consumption of the unit is shifted from the thermal to the electrical part.

Abstract:
In most developing countries, higher numbers of women depend on microenterprise for survival, and access to electricity supply is considered to be vital to the operations of microenterprise businesses. Despite the significance of rural electrification, microenterprises are still battling with a lack of quality and stable electricity supply. To this end, this study analyzed the effect of grid electricity supply on the profitability of microenterprise among rural women. Primary data were used for this study. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Probit model, and the ordinary least square (OLS) method. The result shows that hairdressing (16.8%) is the most common form of businesses followed by tailoring (14.1%), oil palm processing (12.4%), grain milling (7.9%), traditional birth attendants and retail shop (7.1%). Also, the result reveals that age, years of schooling, connection charge, enterprise share of electricity bill with household, and duration of power outage supported the adoption of electricity service among microenterprise owners. The study further shows that the billing method of electricity supply negatively affects the profitability of microenterprise. On the other hand, grid electricity adoption, years spent in business, duration of power supply, and expenditure on alternative sources of energy significantly have a positive impact on the profitability of microenterprise. The study, therefore, recommends that the Government should intensify action in providing rural communities with reliable and affordable electricity services, which is one of the indispensable tools in microenterprises establishment, expansion, and performance.

Abstract:
With urbanisation1 and modernisation of the economy, the use of electrical appliances has increased manifold in Pakistan. Now, household shares in the total electricity use account for 46.5 percent. While other users have lower shares that are industrial 27.5 percent, agriculture 11.6 percent, commercial 7.5 percent and the government 6.2 percent only [Pakistan (2012-13)]. Overtime, the household electricity consumption has also increased because of the increase in electricity consumers2 and of village electrification.3 Other important reasons include the use of modern appliances including both locally made and smuggled and increase in the share of urban women in the labour force by 6.5 percent during 2007-08 and 2012- 13 [Pakistan (2012-13)]. These reasons are also responsible for enlarging electricity demand and supply gap over the years and have led to the electricity shortage to alarming proportions in March 2012. The electricity gap increased to 57,754 GW from 56,930 GW showing an increase of 1.4 percent from the corresponding period of the last year. The acute electricity shortage has caused long hours of the electricity load shedding in the country. The population living in urban areas bears the direct fall out of the electricity breakdown because of the modern lifestyle and sheer dependence on electricity [Pakistan (2012-13)].

Die anspruchsvollen Zielsetzungen zum CO2-Ausstoß von Kraftfahrzeugen verlangen immer stärker nach hocheffizienten Fahrzeugkonzepten und werden zukünftig zu deutlich höheren Elektrifizierungsanteilen der Antriebe führen. Die große Herausforderung liegt dabei in der Lösung des Zielkonfliktes zwischen voll elektrischem Fahren und erstfahrzeugtauglicher Reichweite. Im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojektes zur Konzeption von Hybridfahrzeugen hat die BMW Forschung ein Konzeptfahrzeug entwickelt, das im urbanen Bereich emissionsfrei betrieben werden kann und dennoch alltagstauglich für spontane längere Fahrten nutzbar ist (Abbildung 1). Die für dieses Projekt abgeleiteten Ziele waren ein Verbrauch von < 2,5 l im Ladungserhaltungsbetrieb, eine E-Reichweite von 100 km, eine BMW-adäquate Beschleunigung von < 8 sec von 0 auf 100 km/h, eine erstfahrzeugtaugliche Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 180 km/h, ein Raumangebot auf Niveau heutiger viersitziger Coupés im Kompaktsegment und eine Gesamtreichweite von 1.000 km (Eiletz 2015a). Im Rahmen des Beitrags werden sowohl Prozess und Vorgehensweise bei der Gestaltung des Hocheffizienz-Konzeptfahrzeugs als auch die Ergebnisse des Forschungsprojektes dargelegt.

Abstract:
The transition from one energy system to another has been analysed by many researchers especially in the context of developed countries. Community renewable energy transition in rural areas is largely under-researched, particularly in developing countries. This study developed a model based on indicators from transition theory and concepts to assess the transformative potential of the processes and governance approaches to community renewable energy in accelerating energy and sustainability transition in off-grid communities in Nigeria. The exploratory research adopted a case study approach and analysed renewable energy planning and decision-making processes as well as evaluated the development of a pilot community renewable energy project in Shape rural community in Nigeria. In addition to documentary evidence, the study gathered data primarily by interviewing 24 relevant actors in the Nigerian electricity industry as well as actors involved in the pilot community renewable energy project. The study reveals that the processes and governance approaches adopted are in line with transition theory and have the potential of contributing to the transformation of the rural electricity provision in Nigeria. However, there is still a long way to go for Nigeria to effectively implement an integrated governance approach capable of accelerating the transition processes. The study found that community renewable energy is motivated by several determinants including: the lack of energy accessibility; removing carbon emissions; meeting environmental obligations; achieving energy security; and, addressing cracks in the current system of rural electrification. The study further found a lack of local initiatives at the grassroots level that can add pressure to make the transition happen. The study found the establishment of an arena for the identification of the challenges facing rural communities and development of strategies. However, some prominent actors are not involved in both strategic decision-making and the implementation process. Of concern, the study revealed a lack of clearly defined responsibilities with most of the government agencies carrying out renewable energy activities independently. Similarly, the study found several barriers which are classified as: actor; interaction; institutional; infrastructural; and, socio-political that are challenging the successful transition to community renewable energy. This work contributes to current attempts to operationalise transition theory and concepts to assess on-going transition processes and governance. This is a significant contribution to the literature because it helps in linking theoretical development with sustainability in practice in a developing country context. The study may assist policy makers, communities and other relevant stakeholders in designing an integrated governance framework for renewable energy transition in rural areas.

Abstract:
AbstractElectricity demand is expected to increase strongly as electrification and the use of hydrogen are promising decarbonization options for the demand side sectors transport and industry. In a decentralized system with volatile renewable energy sources, flexibility potentials will play an important role for secure and cost-efficient electricity supply. On the demand side, decentralized PV-battery systems and electric vehicles as well as hydrogen production by electrolyzers could provide the necessary flexibility. Energy demand over time is calculated based on assumed and simulated market shares of these and other low-emission technologies. Impacts on the system and residual load are analyzed, with a focus on the contribution of load shifting as a demand-side measure. Results indicate that load shifting can contribute significantly to integrate RES electricity.

Abstract:
AbstractThe expansion of renewable energy sources (RES) and the electrification of demand side sectors raise the need for power system flexibility. The following model-based analysis illustrates the complexity of the European energy system transformation with pathways regarding the RES expansion, sector coupling, and different levels of flexibility provision. Differences occur concerning the optimal mix of flexibility options between the moderate and ambitious climate target scenarios. Dispatchable back-up capacities are necessary, also in presence of high RES shares. Here, CO2 prices influence the role of low-carbon technologies. Due to cross-sectoral interactions, energy storages have a limited value. For the ambitious scenarios, the emission reductions come close to the Green Deal targets of the European Commission, while levelized costs of electricity increase moderately compared to the less ambitious scenario.

Abstract:
Powerful claims are being made about revolution in the transport sector, with digital technology seen as underpinning a new ‘ecosystem’ of more efficient, more pleasant and less environmentally-damaging mobility. The chapter examines how far such claims are based on evidence, and the contextual conditions that would be necessary for such benefits to be realised. The four key technological shifts identified as part of the transition are interrogated: automation, electrification, digitally-enabled mobility, and collaborative-shared mobility. The benefits of ‘connected autonomous vehicles’ are found to be highly uncertain, in terms of extent and evolution, whereas electrification is confirmed as a necessary but not sufficient condition for more sustainable mobility. Digitally-enabled mobility is technically quite feasible, but continues to face considerable regulatory, institutional and financial barriers. Collective mobility is identified as the development which can potentially have the greatest impact on the sustainability of mobility, but its core claim, that middle-income citizens will choose to share small vehicles to achieve modest cost savings, is least supported by evidence. We conclude that the traditional concerns of transport planning, such as congestion and inequality of access, will likely be persistent features of the new regime.

Abstract:
The study in this chapter examined policy options for promoting solar PV diffusion into the energy mix of six selected remote villages that were pilot sites for national and foreign assisted solar electrification programs in three ecological regions of Nigeria. A total of 910 questionnaires were administered on the solar PV users, suppliers, and government agencies to elicit information on alternative energy sources for provision of energy services. The results showed that solar PV usage was 49.9 kWh per/day, which constituted an insignificant share of about 14% in the total lighting requirement and less than 2% of the total requirement for energy services. The demand would rise to 73.3 kWh per/day by 2019 at the same 14% share of the total lighting requirement. Firewood demand maintained over 80 percent share (2383.5 kWh per/day) in the total energy mix in 2009. It also revealed that the best policy option of 200 percent increase in solar bulbs’ share for lighting by 2014 would require 50% reduction in kerosene share. The study concluded that increasing utilization of solar PV for lighting, entertainment, refrigeration, and ventilation in the study areas could lead to decrease in the use of energy from alternative sources.

Abstract:
Environmental pollution is a significant problem for the whole world. The lack of response from states can lead to many consequences. As consumption increases, so does the emission of harmful substances. According to the European Parliament, almost 30% of total CO2 (greenhouse gas affecting the greenhouse effect in the EU) comes from the transport sector, of which 72% is from road transport. Air pollution is a challenge for municipal authorities. According to the data, road transport accounted for approximately 5% of the creation of PM10 particles, ca. 7% of PM2.5 and approximately 32% for NOX. In Poland, suspended particles (PM10 and PM2.5) cause deaths of as many as 45,000 people a year. Therefore, it is necessary to undertake concrete efforts in order to reduce vehicle exhaust emissions as much as possible. Among them, solutions such as downsizing, hybridization of combustion engines or electrification are used. Based on the analyzes, the authors of the paper drew attention to the significant impact, in this process, of the modernization of energy infrastructure. Thanks to this, it is possible to simultaneously increase the share of zero-emission vehicles as well as the use of VtG (Vehicle to Grid) technology. What’s more, the authors of the paper have determined for the main communication routes (TERN) in Poland, the potential for setting up refuelling stations for new types of vehicles, such as hydrogen or electric cars. Finally, the main risks have been presented for drivers, infrastructure and environment as a result of proposed changes.

Abstract:
The epilogue provincializes what is usually the start or climax of any history of illumination, the emergence of Thomas Edison’s incandescent light. Taking a fresh look at the process historians have called “electrification,” the epilogue re-entangles two stories that should never have been so neatly separated. The first story follows the staging of performances of electric light. It begins in 1882, with the opening of the Boston Bijou Theatre, the first electrically lit theater in the United States, and concludes in 1893 with the electric utopianism on display at the World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The second story delves into the underground politics of copper lode mining. It, too, begins in 1882 and ends in 1893, years that marked the beginning of Butte’s rise as the undisputed copper capital of the world and the formation of the Western Federation of Miners, one of the most radical and influential labor organizations in the history of the United States. Weaving these two narratives back together brings into sharp relief the tensions and contradictions that gripped Gilded Age society and illuminates, too, the curious dialectic of risk and inequality that accompanied the seemingly miraculous progress of electrification.

Abstract:
New advancements in vehicle automation, electrification, data connectivity, and digital methods of sharing—known collectively as New Mobility—are poised to revolutionize transportation as it is known today. Exactly what results this disruption will lead to, however, remains unknown, as indeed the technologies and their uses are still taking shape amidst myriad interests. The impacts of this shift to New Mobility could be enormous, shaping economies, cities, and the lives of people in them. It is therefore vitally important for public interests to play a strong role in the development and deployment of these technologies. With the current trajectory of these technologies warning of the potential for increased energy use, environmental costs, and social inequity, interests at the community level need to be included and influential as soon as possible.

Abstract:
This chapter gives a background on politics via water. It talks about Hydropolitics, the political economy that comes from an industrialization and electrification powered by water. It uncovers how it comes to matter to politics within Paraguay that the electricity that powers homes and factories comes from hydro, not fossil fuels. To untangle how energy can be simultaneously technological and sociopolitical, this chapter explains that people's relationship to the environment is a form of cultural production, which, in turn, inflects political, economic, and social structures. Understanding the dam requires the dual intervention of political ecology, which analyzes both how human interventions shape environment and how the shaping of nature in turn affects human communities. Itaipú has presented the Brazilian and Paraguayan governments the ability to achieve multiple political goals and has had far-reaching cascade effects. What Itaipú Dam has done is to turn the Paraná River under its influence into a political-electrical machine, an engineered complex of geological objects, atmospheric cycles, and cement intrusions.

Abstract:
The fuel economy regulation has been applied to cars and light trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 8,500 pounds or less for decades. For the first time, the government is also beginning to work on national mileage standards beyond the existing emission regulation for big rigs and work trucks (i.e., commercial vehicles). This effort will lead to limiting the disproportionate share of pollutions from these large vehicles. The same technology trend for both currently regulated vehicles and those unregulated big trucks is electrification for better energy efficiency. Vehicle electrification will be widely employed to improve energy utilization efficiency, and reduce or even eliminate GHG emissions. Overall the fundamental objective is to reduce the total amount of energy used by vehicles while minimizing the negative environmental impacts overall. Thus, it is critically important to find out an effective and implementable matrix that can be acceptable and recognizable for both industry and public. In this paper, the weight ratio between payload and unloaded vehicle weight is introduced to normalize the conventional mpg to evaluate vehicle performance per duty cycles. This methodology is especially suited to new energy vehicles by using both endogenous fuel and exogenous electricity (if applicable).

Abstract:
As of January 1, 2008 idling of the main vehicle engine for the purpose of powering sleeper cabin amenities by any truck over 10,000 lbs (4,500 kg) within the borders of the state of California is prohibited unless strict emissions standards are met. Following California’s lead, a number of other states have also passed legislation restricting idling time and emissions. In anticipation of tighter idling legislation and rising fuel prices, idle-reduction technologies are garnering an increasing market share. These include auxiliary battery-electric power systems, primary vehicle battery systems, truck-stop electrification, diesel-fueled auxiliary power systems, and fuel-fired heaters. In this paper the current state of anti-idling technology is reviewed. Off the shelf systems are compared in an attempt to discern which is more advantageous in terms of factors such as lifetime cost, lifetime cost per hour, and payback period.

Abstract The automotive industry is currently experiencing a revolutionary technological transformation including electrification, connectivity, automated/autonomous, lightweighting, and sustainability. This paper presents the education and workforce development programs developed and delivered by Wayne State University and Macomb Community College partnership in meeting industry needs for future workforce in advanced automotive technology. Through funding from the National Science Foundation, a Center for Advanced Automotive Technology (CAAT) was established as an Advanced Technological Education center to support the partnering work, developing and leading systemic curricula reforms. The center worked with industry partners identifying curriculum gaps and provided professional development for teachers to fill those gaps. CAAT also supported new automotive technology university/college programs through its seed funding program which funded others to create, implement, and share new curricula. The center is a preeminent resource for educating engineers and technicians in advanced automotive technology as all materials that were developed in partnership with CAAT were reviewed by industry experts and offered as a free resource through website. CAAT continues its tasks supporting the United States in its efforts to build and maintain a competent workforce ready to use the skills of the 21st century to move industries ahead.

Abstract:
Abstract The move to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the offshore hydrocarbons production industry has resulted in a growing interest in the possibility of using offshore wind to reduce on-platform power generation. However, the integration of floating wind power into a brownfield development project offshore has not yet been undertaken nor has any operating greenfield projects incorporated floating wind electrification into their design. A number of smaller pilot projects exist in the floating offshore wind area consisting of single prototype floating towers to demonstrate a design concept, but these are providing power back to shore. Where electrification of offshore facilities has taken place, they have utilized shore-based power. In this paper, the authors present a case study of electrifying brownfield and greenfield oil and gas production facilities via offshore wind farms and the technical challenges associated with this transformation. Intecsea has recently completed a generic investigation into the electrification of floating offshore oil and gas host facilities offshore Newfoundland, Canada using floating wind power. Electrification of floating host facilities eliminates or reduces the requirement for local power generation via turbine generators at the host facility, decreasing operational expenditure and total emissions from the facility. This work has included the investigation of existing offshore wind projects, equipment requirements and technical readiness, floating wind array best practices, greenhouse gas emissions reduction and required capital expenditure (capex). In this paper, the authors present a case study of electrifying floating brownfield and greenfield oil and gas production facilities using offshore wind farms and the technical challenges associated with this transformation. Challenges identified for the electrification of floating offshore facilities include: challenges associated with dynamic cabling at different water depths determination of best cable configuration and array layout determination of the best suited support structure (floating foundation) sizing of generator (can have a significant effect on the tower's performance) best anchoring solutions; optimization of power tie-in and storage insufficient real estate or weight capacity (for brownfield applications). The authors provide details on wind farm requirements and tie-in for electrification of offshore production facilities for different scenarios. A summary of modifications/additions required at a brownfield host facility for power supply by wind power array are presented. Related to floating production facilities, an investigation of ongoing project work related to dynamic, disconnectable cables which will operate in the upper end of MVAC, HVAC or HVDC range has been carried out and is presented. For cases selected, avoided GHG emissions and associated capex are estimated and presented. The use of offshore floating wind to supplement/replace on platform power generation is part of the ongoing global energy transition.

Abstract:
Abstract In this study, we develop a load estimation method and an optimization tool for community-driven planning of rural electricity systems which aims to encourage stakeholder involvement in planning processes and reinforce the sustainability of small-scale electrification projects. Electricity demand is estimated through the bottom-up construction of load profiles based on devices used in three common rural end-use sectors. A cost minimization model is then implemented to determine the least-cost capacity composition that can be installed based on the load profile and energy availability. The energy sources modeled are small-scale wind, hydro, solar (photovoltaic), diesel, and battery. In the base case, which includes the three sectors equally, most of the optimal capacity (77%) is provided by renewable energy at an average levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of $0.05/kWh for a notional village with 500 houses. The base case results are compared to the results when each sector is respectively favored. The results show that backup dispatchable generation and batteries can both be solutions to intermittent renewables, and the choice between the two appears to depend on the load shape. We also find that the base case results are not very sensitive to the CO2 tax, suggesting that not only are renewables cost-competitive with or without the tax, but they also benefit economically from coupling with cheap fossil fuel generators.
