• Enabling private sector investment in microgrid-based rural electrification in developing countries: A review (2015, background): “[8,10,29–31], ability to pay, electricity demand levels, and the potential for non-technical losses due to electricity theft are still of concern to private investors.”
• Connective Power: Solar Electrification and Social Change in Kenya (2004, background): “The solar policy literature is filled with references to the role of solar lighting in improving children’s educational opportunities (e.g., Cabraal, CosgroveDavies, & Schaeffer, 1996; Gustavsson & Ellegård, 2004; Wamukonya & Davis, 2001).”
• Economic growth and development with low‐carbon energy (2017, background): “In contexts where energy demand is dispersed and individual loads are low, distributed energy is a potentially competitive, if not problem-free, alternative to costly grid extension (e.g., Palit 2013; Wamukonya and Davis 2001).”
