ENERGY ACCESS 1.2 billion people worldwide lack access to electricity 1 further billion do not have reliable access to electricity who are those living without electricity? . more than 95% are in the sub-Saharan Africa and low-income Asia countries . 80% of the world total are in rural areas (World Energy Outlook 2015, International Energy Agency)


ACCESS TO ELECTRICITY IS VITAL TO ENDING EXTREME POVERTY AND PROMOTING SHARED PROSPERITY

electricity enables: . children to study after dark . water to be pumped for crops . foods and medicines to be refrigerated . healthy cooking and heating . …


ACCESS TO MODERN FUELS/ENERGY FOR COOKING: 2.7 billion people access energy through traditional biomass 4.000 premature deaths everyday are due to biomass fumes (1,5 millions a year) (World Energy Outlook 2015, International Energy Agency)


Sustainable development? is not possible without a

SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FOR ALL

UNITED NATIONS:

2014-2024: "Decade of Sustainable Energy for All"

2015: Sustainable Development Goals 7: affordable and clean energy to all by 2030

(pivotal role to achieve all 17 SDGs)


Multipolar and open network for curricula and lifelong learning capacity development on System Design for Sustainable Energy for All (SD4SEA), focused on Sustainable Product-Service Systems (S.PSS) applied to Distributed Renewable Energy (DRE).

LeNSes SCOPE

to promote a NEW GENERATION of DESIGNERS

throughout a new generation of design EDUCATORS/RESEARCHER

capable of DESIGNING

SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SYSTEMS FOR ALL


DRE

TO DECENTRALISED AND DISTRIBUTED

TO RENEWABLE

STRUCTURE

RESOURCE

CENTRALISED

NON-RENEWABLE

Distributed Renewable Energies (DRE)

the traditional centralized and non-renewable (e.g. fossil fuels) system of energy generation and distribution is unsustainable: a paradigm shift is needed towards

a (the) key leverage for Sustainable Energy for All


SELLING PRODUCT TO “UNIT OF SATISFACTION”

INNOVATION TECHNOLOGICAL TO STAKEHOLDER CONFIGURATION

it the economic intrest of the producer to

design low environmantal impact

product

The M-POWER company offers to Tanzania rural people a Solar Home System (SHS) which includes: the hardware to generate solar energy (Solar panel + Storage + Wires) + Energy Using Products (EUP) (two lights + phone charger). Customers pays as a pay per period (daily fees). Off Grid Electric retains ownership of SHS and EUPs. The of cut initial and life cycle costs of DRE hardware make accessible to low-income people (to all).

because cut initial + life cycle costs of DRE hardware (extending access to all)

increase local employment and skills (empower local communities) (entrepreneurial economic interest > environmental impact reduction)
