- title: Modeling Household Behavior in Solar Home Systems Electrification: A Case
Study in Raqaypampa, Bolivia - presenter: @ClaudiaLSS
- description: This study aims to devise a modeling approach to investigate the interconnections among self-declared energy practices, actual electricity consumption and external factors such as socioeconomic and cultural factors that influence residents’ lifestyle and energy behavior in remote communities. It is exemplified on a case study in Raqaypampa, using RAMP to shed light on the multifaceted relationships shaping the lifestyle and energy behavior of the community members. The findings highlight the dynamic interplay of individual practices, consumption patterns, and broader contextual factors, providing understanding of energy dynamics in this remote setting. These insights can potentially allow policymakers to design electrification initiatives tailored to the community’s unique needs and preferences, involving selection of appropriate energy technologies and ensuring accessibility based on daily routines.
