  text: Partial coverage of the traditional grid is one of the factors that con-tribute
    to the low electrical energy access levels in developing countries. This often
    results in long distances between the grid and unconnected communities. Microgrids,
    due to their distributed energy resources, have the potential to increase energy
    access levels. However, there is limited access to microgrids-related knowledge.
    The knowledge is essential for the effective and efficient use of energy, operation,
    and hence sustainability of microgrids. To contribute to the sustainability of
    microgrids, a Virtual and Interactive Microgrids Learning Environment (VIMLE)
    for microgrids knowledge transfer is developed. VIMLE development is guided by
    design-based research. With knowledge transfer and skills acquisition through
    the use of VIMLE, local capacity for designing, installing, operating and maintenance
    of microgrids is built. Skilled local capacity will contribute to microgrids sustainability.
    Hence, improve electrical energy access levels and contribute to the achievement
    of SDG 7.
