Abstract

The Sustainable Off-grid Electrification of Rural Villages (SOGERV) Project seeks to create sustainable energy supply businesses in remote communities in Chikwawa District by deploying appropriate/affordable renewable energy technologies and applications. Little data is readily available in this context to guide the choice of technology and type and level of application. This study describes the market assessment approach taken to determine the viability of specific renewable energy technologies prior to implementation. The objective of the market assessment will provide a means for business planning and technology choice for those businesses.
