The Global Electrification Platform (GEP) is an open access, interactive, online platform that allows for overview of electrification investment scenarios for a selection of countries. The scenarios present pathways for achieving universal electricity access (grid, mini-grid and SHS), split into an intermediate strategy for 2025 and full electrification by 2030. The results of the model indicate the least-cost investment requirements based on publicly available information on demand and existing infrastructure.
Users can explore 96 different scenarios to meet the access goals. These different combinations and parameters are presented in the form of "levers". Users can overlay additional layers as well (e.g. wind potential, electricity networks, location of health facilities) to help illustrate useful contextual information about a selected country.
