预计到2040年,非洲约有1.4亿人将获得微型电网的电力。尼日利亚是非洲大陆电力供应最不可靠的国家,它将从这一布恩中受益匪浅。因此,政府制定了明确的法规,以激励私人投资并推动市场增长。虽然对不断增长的小型电网部门和更广泛的电力行业的技术经济层面进行了广泛研究,但较少注意分析监管框架对实现农村电气化和普及能源供应目标的影响。利用从尼日利亚小型电网部门的主要监管和市场参与者获得的定性数据,本文探讨了通过主要面向提高市场效率的监管框架实现广泛农村电气化的前提。研究发现,虽然目前的框架使该部门得以增长,但需要有补充机制,以实现公平分配电力供应,特别是在主要居住在主流电力市场边缘的农村人口中。研究结果对于寻求循证方法以实现非洲普遍获得能源目标的从业人员和决策者具有指导意义。
About 140 million people across Africa are expected to gain access to electricity from mini grids by 2040. Nigeria, with the least dependable electricity supply on the continent, stands to benefit significantly from this boon. Accordingly, the government has put in place clear regulations to incentivise private investment and drive market growth. While the techno-economic dimensions of the growing mini-grid sector and the broader electricity industry have been extensively studied, less attention has been paid to analysing the impacts of the regulatory framework on the achievement of rural electrification and universal energy access goals. Drawing on qualitative data obtained from key regulatory and market actors in the Nigerian mini-grid sector, this paper interrogates the premise of pursuing widespread rural electrification through a regulatory framework that is primarily geared toward increasing market efficiency. The study finds that, while the current framework has enabled growth in the sector, complementary mechanisms are required to achieve equitable distribution of access, especially among the mainly rural populations dwelling on the fringes of mainstream electricity markets. The findings are instructive for practitioners and policy makers seeking evidence-informed approaches to achieving the goal of universal energy access in Africa.
