Techno‐economic assessment of solar photovoltaic integration
To promote a low-carbon society, it is urgent to better integrate renewable energies into energy supply systems. This paper examines the impact of solar photovoltaic (PV) integration into the national electrical grid in Burkina Faso on the electricity production cost. The analysis is based on the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) technique.
Solar energy at the peri-urban frontier: An energy justice study of
However, only a small subset of these studies includes aspects of energy justice: Samarakoon [28] analyzed energy injustices in Malawi''s off-grid solar market; Boamah et al. [4] studied institutionalized corruption in solar PV systems in Ghana and Kenya; and Cantoni et al. [29] examined solar energy in Burkina Faso.
