About
|
The Global Electrification Platform (GEP) is an open access, interactive, online platform that allows for overview of electrification investment scenarios for a selection of countries (46 available as of February 2020). The scenarios present pathways for achieving universal electricity access, split into an intermediate strategy for 2025 and full electrification by 2030.
Users can explore 216 different scenarios to meet access goals. These different combinations and parameters are presented in the form of "levers". Users can overlay additional layers as well (e.g. wind potential, electricity networks, locations of health facilities) to help illustrate useful contextual information about a selected country. Users can also access the input data and the OnSSET model used to generate the scenarios available on the platform (gep-onsset) and use it to run their own, customized, scenarios. The Global Electrification Platform is available at electrifynow.energydata.info |
