Modern energy services (like electricity) contribute positively to the economic development, welfare and health situation in Africa, but the products like Solar Home Systems (SHS) are often too expensive to purchase at once. Through a prepaid model, more people can afford these products and services and become potential or actual customers. Prepaid in the solar-market is usually referred to as Pay-as-yougo (PAYG). SolarWorks! wants to know if and how PAYG will be a good solution for expanding their markets Subject PSSPay-as-you-gosolar To reference this document use: http://resolver.tudelft.nl/uuid:db946f7d-c609-494e-bbb1-3097b087e237 Access restriction Campus only Part of collection Student theses Document type master thesis Rights (c) 2015 Van Schaik, P.
