• Demand for Off-Grid Solar Electricity: Experimental Evidence from Rwanda (2020, unknown): “Earlier research has also shown that electricity consumption levels even in grid-connected areas in rural Africa are very modest (see Peters et al. 2011; Chaplin et al. 2017; Lenz et al. 2017; Taneja 2018).”
• Rural electrification through mini-grids: Challenges ahead (2019, background): “Profitability of these businesses is mostly low and so is accordingly the business demand for electricity (Chaplin et al. 2017; Neelsen and Peters 2011; Peters et al. 2011; Peters and Sievert 2016; Lenz et al. 2017).”
