Scenarios for universal electricity access with spatial changes in urbanisation : the case of Kenya

Omondi, Cynthia; Njoka, Francis; Tonini, Francesco; … - 2026

Kenya has one of the fastest electrification rates in Sub-Saharan Africa. Despite the increase in electrification rates, rural and underserved regions remain a critical challenge requiring a cost-effective strategy that maximises the use of stand-alone and off-grid solutions. This paper uses the...

Local market prices can reduce electricity costs

Neuhoff, Karsten; Stolle, Leon - 2026

With the liberalization of the electricity markets in 1998, Germany opted for a single, nationwide wholesale price. Regional differences in supply and demand are not taken into account. In the event of grid congestion, electricity generators are paid to adjust their output. This leads to rising...
