Abstract
⺠Renewable mini-grids are a valuable climate change and poverty reduction strategy. ⺠They can be cheaper than diesel on a levelized basis and offer grid level service. ⺠Awareness about mini-grids should be raised and institutional frameworks improved. ⺠Financing mechanisms should be developed to encourage private sector investments. ⺠Joint technology and community engagement training centres should be established.
