Fesibility study of renewable energy-based microgrid hybrid system in Berbera Somaliland

Somaliland is a country that has not recognised internationally since it gets its independence in 1991, which has been suffering from electricity crisis due to high losses of electricity, less trained personnel, shortage of efficient technical plan, poor infrastructure and high cost of energy (COE)...
