African SCENe: Sustainable Community Energy Networks

非洲场景（可持续社区能源网络）是一项为期12个月的可行性研究，将有助于描述和确定内罗毕低收入郊区社区的学校，这些学校有潜力通过创新的商业模式成为清洁能源中心。这些能源中心将能够为所服务的社区生产、储存和分配清洁能源，加快获得充足、负担得起、在肯尼亚建立可靠的可再生能源，同时提高能源意识和教育，拟议的商业模式将消除学校的财政和技术负担，与合作伙伴开发的过去项目的经验一致。鉴于电网可靠性和供应方面的挑战，非洲SCENe将研究如何定义商业模式，使其在现有和未来的能源结构中共存。这一提议的关键是，通过增加使用清洁、安全和可靠的电力的学习和烹饪设施，可以产生社会效益。SmartKlub的角色是开发商业模式，以实现能源中心的实现，并根据与学校签订的租赁合同管理资助的设施。Edu-Cater Global将率先利用各种设施，为学生和家庭提供信息，提高他们的学习经验和对清洁能源主题的认识。他们将使用分包商Map Kibera来确定和访问合适的学校，以便与之合作，并可以作为未来的示范者。诺丁汉大学的作用是开展支持该项目所需的社会、经济、政策和技术研究。FWD.伦敦将通过在可行的情况下利用和发展现有的供应链或从英国企业发展供应链，确保撒哈拉以南非洲地区的可交付性、可复制性和可扩展性。它旨在促进在整个非洲采用可持续的商业做法，帮助减轻人类发展对环境和气候的不利影响。它们还力求确保当地社区从其拥有的大量自然资源中受益。这些好处是通过以下几个方面的结合来实现的：技能培训计划、知识转移举措和资本投资。项目小组将得到一个咨询委员会的支持，该委员会包括肯尼亚电力公司、肯尼亚能源研究所、我们正在积极寻求在整个地区建立伙伴关系，以实现这些目标，目标.

African SCENe (Sustainable Community Energy Networks) is a 12-month feasibility study that will enable the characterisation and identification of schools within low-income suburban communities in Nairobi that have the potential to become clean energy hubs through innovative business models.These energy hubs will be capable of generating, storing and distributing clean energy for the community they serve, accelerating access to adequate, affordable, and reliable renewable energy in Kenya, whilst enhancing energy awareness and education, The proposed business models will remove the financial and technical burden from the schools, in line with learnings from past projects developed by the partners. Given challenges around grid reliability and supply, African SCENe will investigate how the business model could be defined to co-exist within the existing and future energy structures. Key to the proposition is the social benefits that can arise from increasing access to studying and cooking facilities that are powered by clean, safe and reliable electricity.SmartKlub's role is to develop the business model to enable the realisation of the energy hubs, with funded facilities being managed under a lease contract with the school. Edu-Cater Global will take the lead on utilising facilities to inform and enhance pupils and families' learning experience and awareness of clean energy subjects. They will use subcontractor Map Kibera to identify and access appropriate schools to work with and that can be proposed as future demonstrators. University of Nottingham's role is to develop the social, economic, policy and technical researches needed to support the project. FWD.London will ensure deliverability, replicability and scalability across sub-Saharan Africa, by utilising and growing existing supply chains where feasible or developing them from UK businesses. It aims to facilitate the adoption of sustainable business practices across Africa, helping to mitigate the adverse effect human development has on both the environment, and climate. They also seek to ensure that local communities benefit from the vast natural resources available to them. These benefits are unlocked through a combination of; skills training programmes, knowledge transfer initiatives and capital investment.The project team will be supported by an advisory board that includes Kenyan Power, the Institute of Energy Studies Research Kenya, the International Finance Corporation of the World Bank Group and the Kenya Renewable Energy Association.We are actively seeking to form partnerships across the region to achieve these aims and goals.
