dc.description.abstractThe Energy Research Centre (ERC) at the University of Cape Town has been involved in a research project to monitor, evaluate and support the off-grid electrification programme initiated by the Department of Minerals and Energy in 1999 in three provinces of South Africa. The energy service company (ESCO) approach, where a company installs and maintains solar home systems for fee paying clients was selected. Private companies were granted exclusive concessions to operate as the energy service companies in the selected areas. A government subsidy was provided to reduce the connection and service fees payable by the users. The three concession areas are in the northeast of KwaZulu Natal province, the northern part of Limpopo province, and the northern part of Eastern Cape Province. ERC has been working in these concession areas since May 2001, principally through conducting surveys with the aim of understanding the social impacts and the installation and functioning of the solar home systems in order to inform relevant stakeholders.en_ZA
