10. Huge opportunities to learn more about
decarbonizing transport,
…..but we have to keep the pressure on the
electricity sector.

12. Electricity sectors in emerging markets face
unique challenges:
• Access
• Reliability
• Utility incentives & solvency
• Rate structures, wholesale market dynamics, capacity markets

13. Refrigerator advertising
performance during black outs

15. DumsorWatch App PowerWatch Device Cloud Computing
Uses sensors on the phone, e.g.
charge state, accelerometer,
magnetometer, and microphone.
Plugs into the wall. Records voltage
and presence/absence of power.
Receives data from DumsorWatch
and Powerwatch via cellular
network in near-realtime.
