Dear all, this is the second edition of the Mozambique Off-grid Knowledge Hub News to keep you posted about latest developments on energypedia. We have kept the structure simple and lean so that it is easy and quick to read. We hope you appreciate it!
The Mozambique Off-grid Knowledge Hub offers a wealth of information on the energy situation, RE potential, policy and regulatory framework as well as on actors involved in the Mozambican energy sector. You can also browse through sub-hubs on solar energy and cooking energy to understand the market landscape and the opportunities/challenges for private sector engagement in each technology markets. Sub-hubs on nano and mini-grids as well as on productive use of energy will be available soon.
