Abstract
In Mira Daher's home country of Lebanon, the national grid provides power for only a few hours a day. The country's state-owned energy provider, Electricity of Lebanon (EDL), has long struggled to meet demand, and a crippling economic crisis that began in 2019 has worsened the situation. Most residents now rely on privately owned diesel-powered generators for the bulk of their energy needs.
