Description
Despite numerous initiatives, reliable and equitable access to energy remains out of reach for large parts of the population in East Africa. While renewable energy projects are on the rise, ensuring their sustainability and long-term impact continues to pose significant challenges.This book presents the results of an international and inter-disciplinary research project that brings together expertise from engineering science, economics, the social sciences, and education. Its goal: to develop practical, context-sensitive approaches to improving energy access in East Africa.Aimed at scientists, students, and practitioners engaged in energy development, this book offers a rich collection of ideas and solutions to support their work. These solutions are based on the significant benefits of sharing knowledge and insights with other disciplines, making energy development a collaborative effort. Henrietta Acquah-Swanzy is a researcher and PhD candidate in Economics at Paderborn University. Her work integrates quantitative modeling, empirical field studies, and data analytics to examine energy use, decision-making, and the role of social networks in the sustainability of microgrid energy systems. Asiimwe Henry is currently a lecturer in the department of Development Studies, under the Institute of Gender and Development Studies, Makerere University, Uganda. He recently completed his Doctoral Studies at Paderborn University, Germany. His research focus is on Intersectional Discursive Analyses on Gender and Sustainable Renewable Energy Development. Prof. Joachim Böcker was head of the department of Power Electronics and Electrical Drives of the Paderborn University for almost 20 years. He and his team focused on research topics in the fields of electromobility, efficient power conversion, energy management and smart grids. He is author and co-author of more than 300 research papers. Joachim Böcker retired in 2023 but he is still active in some academic functions. Henrik Bode is a research associate at the department of electrical engineering at Paderborn University. His research interests are the development of OER materials and sustainability in energy systems. Paul Bogere lectures Electromagnetics and Physical Electronics in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Makerere University, Uganda. His work focuses on knowledge transfer strategies for the sustainability of microgrids. Ulrich Hilleringmann has been Head of the Sensor Technology Group at Paderborn University since 1999. His main research areas are wireless sensor technology and flexible electronics. Within the ART-D project, he is responsible for power measurement and consumption control. Josephine Nakato Kakande is a researcher and lecturer in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Makerere University, Uganda. Her work focuses on sustainable energy systems, renewable technologies, grid integration, demand side management, efficiency and smart grid solutions. Dr. Teddy Mangeni holds a Doctorate in Educational Sciences. Her research interests focus on stakeholder capacity-building in the context of sustainable development and conflict studies. James Musana (PhD) is a researcher on Education for Sustainable Development. He holds a doctorate in Educational Sciences. His main focus is on Education for Sustainable Development, Sustainability Education and Catholic Education. Ibrahim Mwammenywa is a researcher and lecturer in ICT and Electrical Engineering at the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Dar es Salaam. His work focuses on sensor systems using the Internet of Things and the integration of ICT solutions into electric grids, such as smart grids. »Praxisnah und interdisziplinär gelingt es "Sustainable Energy Development in East Africa", einen Überblick über den Stand der Energiewende in Ostafrika zu geben, spezifische Voraussetzungen der Region herauszuarbeiten und die gewonnenen Projekterfahrungen mit einer interessierten Öffentlichkeit aus Sozial-, Natur- und technischen Wissenschaften sowie Praxisberufen zu teilen. Damit beweist sich der Sammelband nicht nur als analytische Bestandsaufnahme, sondern vor allem als anwendungsorientierte Wissensressource, welche Forschungsergebnisse, Projekterfahrungen und Bildungsansätze so zusammenführt, dass sie für politische Entscheidungsprozesse, zivilgesellschaftliches Engagement und konkrete Praxis der Energiewende in Ostafrika wie darüber hinaus unmittelbar anschlussfähig und nutzbar werden können.« Centrum für internationale Entwicklung
