For each country, the authors review the current situation in the domestic power sector, adopt a GIS-based approach to plot renewable energy resources potential, and review currently planned projects and projects under development, as well as the key domestic renewables regulations. Based on such information, least-cost 100% electrification scenarios by 2030 are then modelled and comparative results over the required capacity additions and investment are reported and discussed. The authors also inquire into some of the key technological, economic, policy, cooperation, and financing challenges to the development of a portfolio of renewables to promote energy access in a sustainable way, including a discussion of the challenges and opportunities that might stem from the interaction between local RE potential and natural gas resources currently under development in the region. To conclude, policy recommendations based on the book?s results and targeted at international cooperation and development institutions, local policymakers, and private stakeholders in the region are elaborated. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Energy,$x2191-5520 606 $aRenewable energy resources 606 $aAfrica?Economic conditions 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpatial economics 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy and state 606 $aRenewable and Green Energy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/111000 606 $aAfrican Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W45020 606 $aRegional/Spatial Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000 610 $aEnergy 610 $aRenewable energy resources 610 $aAfrica?Economic conditions 610 $aRegional economics 610 $aSpatial economics 610 $aEnergy policy 610 $aEnergy and state 615 0$aRenewable energy resources. 615 0$aAfrica?Economic conditions. 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpatial economics. 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy and state. 615 14$aRenewable and Green Energy. 615 24$aAfrican Economics. 615 24$aRegional/Spatial Science. 615 24$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 676 $a621.042 700 $aHafner$b Manfred$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0849043 702 $aTagliapietra$b Simone$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aFalchetta$b Giacomo$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aOcchiali$b Giovanni$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337595103321 996 $aRenewables for Energy Access and Sustainable Development in East Africa$92020287 997 $aUNINA
