Kim, our founder and director, is in Lusaka, Zambia to get started on our willingness-to-pay study! Zambia is mostly powered by hydro-electric power, but due to the recent southern drought there has been a electricity shortage resulting in blackouts and loadshedding across the country. In this study, Thrie Energy Collective is looking to determine the electricity tariff local businesses find acceptable to pay for reliable and uninterrupted electricity service. We are excited to get going!
