New paper on excess power capacity in the age of energy transition
Rasmus Hundsbæk Pedersen (@landaffairs) profile pictureRasmus Hundsbæk Pedersen@landaffairs14 Dec 2022
Several African countries have problems with energy sector overcapacity - a paradox in contexts where many people do not have access to modern energy. Read our new paper open access: The paradox of overcapacity in African energy sectors sciencedirect.com/science/ar… @EnergyStruggles
