Percentage of children in a school attendance age (approximately 3-17 years old depending on the country) that have internet connection at home. Also in this case the indicator relates to the potential educational impact of electrification on children and young people.
This layer shows the percentage of children under 6 months who are exclusively breastfed, meaning they receive only breast milk without any additional food or drink. Exclusive breastfeeding is a key determinant of child survival, growth, and development.
Priority areas are identified using local coefficients estimated through Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR), which measures the spatially varying relationship between access to electricity and four nutrition indicators among children under five: stunting, wasting, severe wasting, and underweight.
The tool highlights locations where the local association between electricity access and the selected nutrition indicator is both negative and statistically significant. In this application, priority areas are further restricted to locations where electricity access is below 80%, ensuring that the results remain relevant for policy intervention.
The identified areas are classified as having strong, moderate, or mild associations according to the magnitude of the local GWR coefficient. This classification helps users determine the appropriate intensity of intervention. The spatially varying coefficients therefore allow users to identify areas where limited electricity access is most strongly associated with poorer nutritional outcomes among children under five, supporting targeted interventions, programme planning, and place-based development strategies.

Prevalence of underweight (weight-for-age <-2 standard deviation from the median of the World Health Organization (WHO) Child Growth Standards) among children under 5 years of age. Survey estimates are based on standardized methodology using the WHO Child Growth Standards. Global and regional estimates are based on methodology outlined in UNICEF-WHO-The World Bank: Joint child malnutrition estimates - Levels and trends (UNICEF/WHO/WB 2012).

Malaria, a life-threatening disease transmitted by mosquitoes, affects millions of people worldwide. Treatment and prevention efforts such as insecticide-treated mosquito nets and rapid diagnostic tests significantly decreased the number of malaria cases in Africa. This layer displays the change in malaria rates (%) from 2000 to 2015 among children in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Percentage of children 24-35 months who had received all age appropriate vaccinations. The lower the number of vaccinated children, the more beneficial decentralised renewable energy solutions may be in providing electricity to store vaccines in proper refrigerators.
Percentage of women who worked in the 12 months preceding the survey and are working currently. A lower score reflects weaker female emancipation within the labour market, and thus a higher potential impact of electricity access for improving women empowerment.
Mapping ongoing project activities in the field of conservation in protected areas is essential to identify the various actors and to identify the areas where information and actors are scarce. The aim is to better understand who is funding what and where, with a view to improve decision-making on biodiversity conservation. This map provides the geolocation of all sites that have received funding in the frame of a biodiversity conservation project -or an activity within a project- within approx. the last 20 years. It specifies whether the site is protected or not. One project usually includes several sites.
Percentage of healthcare facilities with electricity access in selected countries. Information on electricity access for healthcare facilities has been collected in the electricity access health facility database (EHFDB). The lower the healthcare facilities with access to electricity the greater the potential for decentralised renewable energies to improve electricity access in these facilities and thus healthcare outcomes.
The INFORM Risk Index 2021 is a composite model structured into a hierarchy of dimensions, categories, and components. All scores are normalized on a scale of 0 to 10 (10 being the highest risk).
Below is the clear breakdown of the index's architecture based on your descriptions:
The top-level score representing a country's overall risk of humanitarian crisis. It is used to assign countries into Risk Classes:
This dimension measures the predisposition of a population to be affected by a hazard based on economic, political, and social characteristics.
Sub-Index: Socio-Economic Vulnerability
An aggregate index covering three main components of systemic instability:
Sub-Index: Vulnerable Groups
Captures social groups with limited access to care and heightened susceptibility:
This dimension measures the ability of a country to manage and recover from disasters through its infrastructure and government effort.
Sub-Index: Institutional Capacity
Measures the "soft" infrastructure of a country's disaster management:
Sub-Index: Infrastructure
Measures the "hard" assets and systems available during a crisis:
Percentage of women who are literate. This indicator highlights the importance of electricity for women, who spend the majority of their time taking care of the households. Electricity can ease girls and young women from houdeholds duties and allow them to attend schools. Thus, the lower the number of households with access to electricity the greater the potential for decentralised renewable energies to improve literacy levels among women.
This layer provides estimates of the percentage of children aged 2 to 10 years (PfPR2–10) with detectable Plasmodium falciparum parasites in 2022. The estimates are generated using geostatistical models based on point prevalence surveys, routine surveillance data, and a wide range of geospatial covariates representing mosquito habitat and environmental conditions. The data are available annually from 2000 onward, covering all malaria-endemic countries, at a spatial resolution of 5 × 5 km.
Malaria, a life-threatening disease transmitted by mosquitoes, affects millions of people worldwide. This layer highlights malaria rates among children age 2 to 10 in Sub-Saharan Africa in 2015.
This layer shows the percentage of children under 5 experiencing severe wasting (in 2019) — the most critical form of acute malnutrition. These children face a significantly higher risk of mortality and require immediate therapeutic support. This indicator helps prioritize emergency nutrition interventions and monitor high-risk areas in need of health and food system strengthening.
This layer shows the percentage of stunting among children under 5 years of age, a form of chronic undernutrition reflected in low height-for-age. Stunting can result from prolonged food insecurity, poor maternal health, or inadequate early childhood care. Areas with high stunting rates indicate long-term development challenges and can help guide interventions aimed at improving nutrition, health services, and water and sanitation infrastructure.
This dataset provides estimates of the total number of under-5 children per grid cell, for Uganda. The data come from the WorldPop R2025A, version v1 release. The dataset is available in GeoTIFF format at a spatial resolution of 30 arc-seconds (approximately 1 km at the equator). All layers use the WGS84 Geographic Coordinate System.
Percentage of undernourished people. The higher the incidence of undernourished people the more beneficial decentralised renewable energy solutions may be, in terms of improving both cooking facilities within households and agricultural productivity with positive impacts on nutrition. Thus electricity can be used to make agricultural practices more efficient and refrigerate food produce to store for longer.
This layer shows the percentage of children under 5 years of age (in 2019) who are underweight, based on low weight-for-age. Underweight is a composite indicator capturing both chronic and acute undernutrition. It is useful for identifying vulnerable populations and informing multisectoral strategies to improve child health, food access, and caregiving practices.
This layer shows the prevalence of wasting among children under 5 years of age (in 2019), a sign of acute undernutrition indicated by low weight-for-height. Wasting reflects recent and severe weight loss, often caused by food shortage, infection, or crisis conditions. Mapping areas with high wasting rates can help target urgent humanitarian and nutrition assistance.
This dataset provides the P50 projections for a Direct Heat with Heat Pump geothermal system.
Direct Heat with Heat Pump refers to a scenario where a geothermal system is integrated with an industrial heat pump to upgrade low-grade heat. This allows for production from geothermal temperatures as low as 40°C, which are then heated by the pump to a delivery temperature of 80°C. The reinjection temperature is set to the production temperature minus 20°C, with a absolute minimum of 15°C.
P50 is a statistical term used in risk analysis and forecasting. P50 represents the median scenario, meaning there is a 50% probability that the actual outcome will be higher than this value and a 50% probability it will be lower. It serves as the baseline ""best estimate.""
Metrics DefinitionsCoefficient of Performance (COP) [-]: A measure of efficiency, defined as the ratio of useful heating or cooling provided to the work (energy) required to operate the Chiller. Higher values indicate greater efficiency.
Doublet Net Production [MW]: The actual useful power output (Megawatts) generated by the ""doublet"" (one production well + one injection well), subtracting any energy used by pumps or auxiliary equipment.
Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) [US$ct/kWh]: The average revenue per unit of energy needed to recover the cost of building and operating the plant over its entire life cycle. It essentially represents the break-even price.
Net Present Value (NPV) [million US$]: The current financial value of all future cash flows the project will generate, minus the initial investment costs. A positive NPV generally indicates a profitable project.
Optimized Depth of the Aquifer [m]: The calculated ideal drilling depth (meters) to reach the geothermal reservoir that balances drilling costs with temperature/flow benefits.
Production Flow Rate [m³/h]: The volume of geothermal fluid extracted from the reservoir per hour (cubic meters per hour).
Temperature at Reservoir [°C]: The natural temperature (Celsius) of the geothermal fluid within the subsurface rock formation before it is brought to the surface.
Transmissivity [Dm]: A measure of how easily fluid flows through the porous aquifer. It is the product of hydraulic conductivity and aquifer thickness (often measured in Darcy-meters). High transmissivity means easier extraction.
Well Distance [m]: The physical distance (meters) between the production well (extraction) and the injection well (return). Proper spacing prevents ""short-circuiting,"" where cool injected water lowers the temperature of the production well too quickly.
