The complexity of the mini-grid business stands at the forefront of Tobias Engelmeier from VIDA and Emily McAteer from Odyssey Energy's discussion, hosted by Nico Peterschmidt from INENSUS / MicroPower Manager Open Source. They explore how software can be a pivotal tool in managing the multifaceted challenges of this sector. Emily particularly highlights that the trajectory of mini-grid software development doesn't deviate significantly from patterns observed in other industries. Typically, individual companies start by developing their own bespoke solutions. However, as the industry matures, enterprise software becomes more prevalent, offering enhanced services at a lower cost compared to the operation of in-house developed software. This transition is crucial for mini-grid companies and the broader sector, promising significant benefits in terms of improved efficiency and user experience, especially for those who are price-sensitive.
