世界银行-分布式可再生能源领域负责任的数据共享框架（英）

A KNOWLEDGE NOTE SERIES FOR THE ENERGY & EXTRACTIVES GLOBAL PRACTICE2025/144SEPTEMBER 2025A Responsible Data Sharing Framework for the Distributed Renewable Energy SectorAuthorsThe bottom line. In collaboration with Nigeria’s Rural Electrification Agency, the World Bank is piloting a Responsible Data Sharing Framework (RDSF) for the distributed renewable energy sector. The framework was developed over the course of 12 months in 2024, through collaboration with some 25 stakeholders from government and the private sector. It embodies a shared ambition to turn data into better outcomes for the communities served. At its core, an RDSF for the sector sets out how appropriate data about projects can be shared in ways that are efficient and effective.In 2023, the World Bank approved the Nigeria Distributed Access through Renewable Energy Scale-up (DARES) project. DARES aims to bring new or improved access to clean energy to 17.5 million people and replace more than 280,000 petrol and diesel generators in the process. The RDSF pilot is part of DARES.Ashish Shrestha is an energy specialist at ESMAP, where his focus is on distributed renewable energy and electrification planning. He co-leads the Bank’s energy access programming in Nigeria.Anders Pedersen is a senior energy specialist at ESMAP, where he focuses on grid digitalization, cybersecurity, geospatial analytics, and use of AI in the energy sector. Neelima Janardhanan is a data standards architect at Open Data Services, where she develops frameworks that enhance interoperability in infrastructure procurement and energy access.Mollie Hanley is a communications lead at Open Data Services, where she works with partners and clients on messaging about data, policy, and their impact on the public good. What is at stake? 750 million people worldwide have no access to electricity, more than half of them in Sub-Saharan Africa. Distributed renewable energy offers a practical, scalable way to close a significant part of that gap Distributed renewable energy (DRE)—including solar mini grids and standalone solar—provides uninterrupted elec-tricity to off-grid and underserved communities. To date, equipment costs, economies of scale, financing modalities, and sectoral experience have combined to limit the DRE ecosystem. Rapid growth and acceleration will be needed to reach the World Bank’s new goal of connecting millions in Africa to electricity by 2030 as part of Mission 300, an ambitious effort to provide electricity access to 300 million Public Disclosure AuthorizedPublic Disclosure AuthorizedPublic Disclosure AuthorizedPublic Disclosure AuthorizedA Responsible Data Sharing Framework for the Distributed Renewable Energy Sector2people in partnership with the African Development Bank (World Bank 2024; REA n.d.).
