Challenges and Gaps during Energy Disruptions

Published:

This was a panel discussion on the challenges and gaps which may occur or arise with energy disruptions. Energy disruptions may include climate change or new technologies and or regulations.

Decision Support Metrics for Electricity Planning

Published:

This talk demonstrated a two-stage electricity planning approach. Building locations and merging algorithms were used to apporximate residential locations, used as demand nodes for network planning. Given residential nodes, electricity access metrics (low voltage wire length, medium voltage wire length, transformer density and the cost of electrification) are estimated for wards in Kenya. These metrics highlight opportunities for varying electricity technologies (solar, minigrid, full-scale grid).

How Remote Sensing Can Be of Value to the Energy Sector

Published:

Abstract: Recent work has demonstrated how one can use daytime satellite imagery to assist the prediction of individual residential building consumption levels upon connection. Using six years of longitudinal data of electricity consumption for a large cross-section of grid customers from Kenya, we apply convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to daytime satellite images to predict expected levels of residential electricity consumption for individual customers throughout the country.
