Abstract
This study examines the potential for solar and solar-hybrid mini-grids to provide sustainable electricity in Nybiheke Refugee Camp, Rwanda. Using techno-economic modelling and financial analysis, the study finds that sustainable mini-grids can reduce costs by over 30% and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by over 80% whilst meeting the needs of both institutional users and refugee businesses.
