Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering ;Volume 7593-030-71216-8 Chapter 1: Introduction: Electrical-Energy Revolutions and Smart Grids -- Part I: Smart Prepaid Electricity Meters -- Chapter 2: Rationale Part I: Historical Development and Market Expansion -- Chapter 3: Rationale Part II: A Misdiagnosis of Non-payment and Electricity Theft -- Chapter 4: 4 Prepaid Electricity Meters and Energy Poverty—Lesson from South Africa -- Part II Sub-Saharan Region: Adoption and Experiences -- Chapter 5: Western Africa Region -- Chapter 6: Eastern Africa Region.This book provides a novel and holistic perspective on the deployment of prepaid electricity meter technology among energy impoverished (vulnerable) households based in developing or under-developed communities of Sub-Saharan Africa. It explores and reviews the nexus between the technology and socio-economic development, technology acceptance and rejection in low-income households, and ultimately proposes a contextual model to avert or assuage energy poverty in the region using the technology. Science is applied as a convenient, valid, and reliable model to generate bespoke, contextual, and relevant knowledge for policy makers on the development of prepaid meter market in the region. The knowledge shared contributes to extant discourse and debates around the effectiveness of the technology within indigent household settings. The book is intended for energy/electricity utilities, prepaid electricity businesses, policy developers, and other interested parties whose work is related to prepaid electricity meters.Lecture notes in electrical engineering ;Volume 759.Electric metersAfrica, Sub-SaharanSmart power gridsAfrica, Sub-SaharanElectric metersElectric metersSmart power gridsElectric meters.621.37Kambule Njabulo963868Nwulu NnamdiMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910483944803321The Deployment of Prepaid Electricity Meters in Sub-Saharan Africa2185900UNINA01353nam 2200301Ia 450 99638796670331620221107141529.0(CKB)4940000000084820(EEBO)2240896069(OCoLC)26777090(EXLCZ)99494000000008482019921013d1675 uy |engurbn||||a|bb|By the King, a proclamation[electronic resource] whereas we have fully resolved to use our utmost endeavours for the preservation of the true religion established in this kingdom, to which we ... have thought fit to command all popish priests and jesuites ... to depart out of, and not return or come into this our kingdom ..LondonPrinted by the assigns of John Bill and Christopher Barker ...1674/51 broadside"Given at our court at Whitehall the fifth day of February, 1674/5, in the seven and twentieth year of our reign."Imperfect: tightly bound, with loss of text.Reproduction of original in Bodleian Library.eebo-0014Great BritainHistoryCharles II, 1660-1685CharlesKing of England,1630-1685.793293WaOLNBOOK996387966703316By the King.
