Abstract

Regeringen på Mauritius har en vision om at omdanne Mauritius til en bæredygtig ø. Et vigtigt element i dette er at forøge landets brug af vedvarende energi og derved reducere afhængigheden af fossile brændsler. Også demokratisering af produktionen af energi er besluttet som en vej fremad. Et skridt i denne retning at give husholdninger og virksomheder mulighed for og motivation til at producere elektricitet ved hjælp af små (under 50 kW) vindmøller, solcelleanlæg og vandkraft (SSDG). Men givet at produktion i lille skala er dyrere, er det nødvendigt at give økonomiske støtte, hvis husholdninger og virksomheder (SIPP) skal investere i elproduktion i lille skala (SSDG). Konference bidraget præsenterer sammenhæng, teoretiske overvejelser og foreslår incitamenter til elproduktion via SSDG. Bidraget giver også en update m.h.t. den faktiske implementering på Mauritius
