Off-Grid Guide
The Off-Grid Guide is written by Ekistica and produced by Intyalheme. It leverages the knowledge generated during the Bushlight project, which ran between 2002 and 2013. The 56-page document contains guidelines to help with decision making in the procurement, deployment, operation and maintenance of off-grid solar systems. It is primarily aimed at municipal and essential service providers, taking into account that renewable energy engineering might not always be an area of expertise for those working in this space.
