摘要

东非（EA）的经济正在努力进行结构转型，重点是扩大制造业。然而，与现代和可靠的能源供应相关的挑战阻碍了该行业在整个地区的增长表现。本系统综述探讨了整合分散式可再生能源解决方案以弥合EA制造业能源供需缺口的潜力、机遇和挑战。它还提供了关于分散的可再生能源技术在EA制造部门整合程度的最新见解。审查的相关数据和信息从46个参考文献中检索，包括数据库和网络来源。研究结果强调，东亚地区拥有丰富的未开发太阳能、风能和生物能源资源，可以弥补该行业的能源供需缺口。报告还指出，与传统能源相比，可再生能源解决方案在制造领域的混合和独立应用正变得越来越具有技术经济竞争力。然而，一些挑战阻碍了分散的可再生能源技术在该部门的整合，包括缺乏有利的监管框架、有限的融资选择、有限的可再生能源技术以及缺乏熟练劳动力。尽管如此，旨在支持发展中国家应对气候变化的国际倡议可以通过促进技术转让、能力建设和提供负担得起的融资选择，帮助克服该地区的资金和技术限制。此外，东非国家扩大其制造业部门的雄心为加速将分散的可再生能源技术纳入该部门提供了一个令人兴奋的机会。

Decentralized renewable energy technology alternatives to bridge manufacturing sector energy supply-demand gap in East Africa: A systematic review of potentials, challenges, and opportunities

The economy of East Africa (EA) is striving for a structural transformation with a strong focus on expanding the manufacturing sector. However, challenges related to modern and reliable energy supply have hindered the sector's growth performance across the region. This systematic review explores the potential, opportunities, and challenges to integrating decentralized renewable energy solutions to bridge the energy supply-demand gap in the EA's manufacturing sector. It also provides up-to-date insights into the extent of integration of decentralized renewable energy technologies in the EA manufacturing sector. Relevant data and information for the review were retrieved from 46 references, including databases and web-based sources. The findings highlight that the EA region possesses abundant untapped solar, wind, and bioenergy resources that can close the sector's energy supply-demand gap. The review also reveals that renewable energy solutions are becoming increasingly techno-economically competitive with conventional energy sources for hybrid and stand-alone applications in the manufacturing sector. However, several challenges impede the integration of decentralized renewable energy technologies in the sector, including a lack of enabling regulatory frameworks, limited financing options, limited access to renewable technologies, and a lack of skilled labor. Nonetheless, international initiatives aimed at supporting developing countries in combating climate change can help overcome the region's financial and technological constraints by facilitating technology transfer, capacity building, and offering affordable financing options. Furthermore, the ambition of East African nations to expand their manufacturing sectors presents a stimulating opportunity to accelerate the integration of decentralized renewable energy technologies into the sector.

期刊介绍： The mission of Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews is to disseminate the most compelling and pertinent critical insights in renewable and sustainable energy, fostering collaboration among the research community, private sector, and policy and decision makers. The journal aims to exchange challenges, solutions, innovative concepts, and technologies, contributing to sustainable development, the transition to a low-carbon future, and the attainment of emissions targets outlined by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews publishes a diverse range of content, including review papers, original research, case studies, and analyses of new technologies, all featuring a substantial review component such as critique, comparison, or analysis. Introducing a distinctive paper type, Expert Insights, the journal presents commissioned mini-reviews authored by field leaders, addressing topics of significant interest. Case studies undergo consideration only if they showcase the work's applicability to other regions or contribute valuable insights to the broader field of renewable and sustainable energy. Notably, a bibliographic or literature review lacking critical analysis is deemed unsuitable for publication.
