How Energy Storage Plays a Role in Kenya''s Long-Term Electricity Goals
To date, distributed energy resources (DER) in Africa have been somewhat of a pipedream. Ironically, DER and energy storage stand to see the largest growth over the next 10 years in emerging markets—like those in Africa. This is primarily due to the lack of reliable, networked power across the continent.
