Descripción
The FAO project “Investing in Energy Sustainable Technologies in Agrifood Sector” (INVESTA) developed a methodology to analyze energy interventions in the agrifood sector . The main purpose of the methodology is to assess costs and benefits associated with renewable energy and energy efficiency practices and to highlight hidden socio-economic and environmental costs and benefits of such interventions. This is important for decision-making for better targeting investments that will result in a net benefit to the society.
This publication summarizes the results of the application of the INVESTA methodology to solar irrigation systems in two international cooperation projects in Senegal.
