Specific attention was paid to sustainable development issues, namely, the integration of social, environmental, technical and economic components. The project was carried out in the Ouneine Valley (Morocco). The project aimed to implement a technical transfer program and to improve the population’s ability to absorb innovations such as rural electrification by isolated micro-grid. The project also comprised a research component aimed at gaining an understanding of the interfaces between the technical and sociological levels.Rural electrificationCoopérationMicro-gridRenewable energySocial implementationAppropriate technologytext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
