The '''Republic of Mozambique''' is located on the south-eastern coast of Africa and has a surface area of 801,590 square kilometres. It is bordered by South Africa, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania, and separated by the Indian Ocean from Madagascar. The country is divided into ten provinces, and a provincial capital city. It is one of the poorest countries in the world, and the 7th poorest in Africa with a GDP per capita of USD 1281 (2019), a total GDP of USD 14.96 billion (2019), and an annual GDP growth of 3.11% (2018).  [[Mozambique- Country Information|Read more...]]

Productive End Use (PEU) of energy refers to activities that increase income or productivity in different sectors such as agriculture (e.g. irrigation, grain milling), manufacturing (e.g. carpentry, welding, and sewing), and the service sector (e.g. restaurants using electric lights, sound systems, refrigerators, mobile charging stations). <ref name="“Mini-Grid Webinar Series - Energypedia.info,” accessed July 7, 2017, https://energypedia.info/wiki/Mini-grid_Webinar_Series#3rd_Webinar:_Productive_End_Use.">“Mini-Grid Webinar Series - Energypedia.info,” accessed July 7, 2017, https://energypedia.info/wiki/Mini-grid_Webinar_Series#3rd_Webinar:_Productive_End_Use.</ref><br/>

PicoPV products themselves do not result in productive end use activities as they have small capacity to run appliances. However, they indirectly help to promote productive end use activities. For example:
 
  
−
*PicoPV increases the time for income generation activities by task shifting i.e with more productive hours in the day, people can choose to do different tasks at different time. Better quality light is available for longer time at night which enable the businesses to run longer, resulting in higher income.
 
−
*By using picoPV products, people can save on kerosene and candles. Assuming that a picoPV product has a three year life cycle, a household can save up to 86% of their previous energy expenses for kerosene and mobile charging. The saved amount can then be invested in other income generating activities. The government will also save the money that they spend on kerosene subsidies and can be used for other productive activities.
 
−
*Initially picoPV products were designed to provide only lighting services but with the emergence of technology, the picoPV systems can now power small appliances such as mobile phone charging, energy efficient based LED-Television, radio etc. Services such as mobile phone charging can be an additional source of income.
 
−
*The picoPV industry have also created additional 500000 jobs only in the ECOWAS region.<ref name="UNEP/GEF, United Nations Environment Programme and Global Environment Facility, “Developing Effective Off-Grid Lighting Policy,” 2015, http://www.enlighten-initiative.org/portals/0/documents/Resources/publications/Guidance%20note%20OGL_en.lighten_English_2016-01-08.pdf.">UNEP/GEF, United Nations Environment Programme and Global Environment Facility, “Developing Effective Off-Grid Lighting Policy,” 2015, http://www.enlighten-initiative.org/portals/0/documents/Resources/publications/Guidance%20note%20OGL_en.lighten_English_2016-01-08.pdf.</ref>

== Conclusion ==
 
−
In general, picoPV systems are too small for productive uses but they do help to support ongoing productive use activities. Nevertheless, in future, with the emergence of new technologies, we could expect more PEU activities based on PicoPV.
