  2. Outline 2 1 2 3 4 5 Introduction RES and

    Community Energy Proposed Technical Solution Impacts Conclusion
  3. Introduction • Energy production and use account to ⅔ Green

    House Gas (GHG) emissions. ◦ Paris Agreement : >70% reduction of GHG energy-related by 2050. source: European Environment Agency Speeding up innovation in Energy sector => Promote renewable energy.
  4. Role of RES •RES with efficient energy management strategies can

    achieve. source: Trade time Needs for innovation that: 1. Enhance performance of RES 2. Integrate high share of RES into the grid. 3. Create affordable solution for end-users. ◦ >90% reduction of GHG ◦ Meet Paris-agreement. ◦ Contribute to climate change mitigation.
  5. Communities Energies (CEs) • New approaches to unlock growth in

    RES. source: Trade time source: Friend of the Earth Europe
  6. Proposed Technical Solution 7 1. Value-propositions of data-driven and other

    machine learning approaches in smartening and enhancing energy-management practices in CEs.
  7. Proposed Technical Solution 8 1. Build capacity in Africa through

    knowledge transfer and awareness creation. 
 

  8. Impacts 9 1. Introduce data-driven and machine learning innovation to

    leverage the potential of CEs in Africa. 2. Empower stakeholders in the energy sector to use, scale and adopt innovative data-driven and ML solutions.
  9. Conclusion & Future Work 10 • Improving efficiency of the

    electricity consumption is important towards reducing GHG and ensuring sustainability of access to electricity. • We propose CEs to encourage self-consumption and improve energy awareness using data-driven techniques and mitigate climate change.
