It investigates the key determinants for successfully providing energy to resource-poor communities, and examines a wide range of technologies for energy production, distribution, storage and efficient use. Taken together, these case studies deal with the entire life cycle of products and solutions, as well as the complete value chain including all relevant stake holders. The collection also draws upon empirical research conducted in Africa and South America to present critical perspectives on women’s access to technologies in the renewable sector. This publication serves as a bridge between engineers, economists, and other scientists involved in research on the interface between technology and human, social and economic development. It also provides a valuable resource to academics and researchers of the natural sciences, computer science, information management, quantitative social sciences and business studies. .Energy policyEnergy and stateEnergy systemsDevelopment economicsSustainable developmentEnergy Policy, Economics and Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000Energy Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/115000Development Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000Sustainable Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000Energy policy.Energy and state.Energy systems.Development economics.Sustainable development.Energy Policy, Economics and Management.Energy Systems.Development Economics.Sustainable Development.621.042Hostettler Silviaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGadgil Ashokedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHazboun Eileenedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtUnesco.BOOK9910299607403321Sustainable Access to Energy in the Global South2165789UNINA
