Increasing local energy access in developing countries, particularly in off-grid regions where mini-grids are often overloaded, remains a critically underexplored area in energy transition. These regions often face significant technical and economic challenges, such as low generation capacity, high energy costs, limited energy access, and heavy reliance on diesel fuels. This study explores capacity expansion by integrating small-scale geothermal energy into such a mini-grid system to enhance the [...]
