The volume presents innovative approaches to improving energy
access in underprivileged communities. A core theme is the use of
previously underutilized or unrecognized resources that can be
found through synergies in supply and value innovation, novel
financing methods, and the use of leapfrog technologies. The
contributors illustrate how decentralized approaches and
small-scale localized solutions can promote climate change
mitigation and adaptation and increase the resiliency of
vulnerable communities. This book gathers selected articles from
the 2014 Micro energy Systems Conference at UC Berkeley that focus
on technical, financial, human, institutional, and natural resource
capital. The contributions reflect the latest concepts, theories,
methods and techniques, offering a valuable resource for
researchers, practitioners and governmental institutions engaged in
the field of energy access for developing countries.
