Abstract

Renewable energy microgrids are increasingly being considered as a sustainable solution for electrification in rural areas of developing countries like Mozambique. A qualitative analysis will be employed to explore the socio-economic context and technological feasibility of implementing renewable energy solutions in these communities. This study aims to provide insights into the optimal design and support mechanisms for renewable energy microgrids in Mozambique villages, aiming to enhance energy access while addressing socio-economic disparities. Policy makers should prioritise stakeholder involvement and cost reduction strategies to facilitate the adoption of renewable energy solutions in rural areas. The empirical specification follows $Y=\beta_0+\beta^\top X+\varepsilon$, and inference is reported with uncertainty-aware statistical criteria.
