The Berlin-Berkeley Energy Access Group (BBEAG) is a collaboration between RLI and the Renewable and Appropriate Energy Laboratory (RAEL) at the University of California, Berkeley. The collaboration was created in order to jointly work on research topics that aim to improve access to sustainable energy for all people worldwide.
Both institutions are involved in research regarding electrification strategies based on renewable energy for developing regions. Both are committed to the Seventh UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG7) that calls for universal access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy. Expertise developed in this context at RLI and RAEL is bundled within BBEAG.
The aims of the partnership are:
