Wind farms tend to be large projects built in relatively remote areas, and in the past, they have often generated more disturbance than benefits for local communities. This World Bank report discusses models that allow host communities of wind energy projects to benefit more from those projects.
This paper presents the results of a techno-economic study of a potential waste-to-energy plant in Kampala, Uganda, including modeling to project energy generation potential and the payback period for the initial investment.
