  OnSSET/The Global Electrification Platform
  Learn about geospatial energy modelling and how to build your own electrification analysis. Explore the possibilities to include the geospatial dimension to your energy modelling to unlock new dimensions and gain an understanding of the earth’s different energy resources and how to incorporate them in your energy modelling.
  
  In this course you will be introduced to the Open Source Spatial Electrification Tool (OnSSET) and some key Geographical Information System methods and with those build a database of spatial data. From that database you will then build your own country model in the Global Electrification Platform (GEP) scenario generator using the OnSSET tool.
  This is the April 2023 presentation of the course.
