Comoros's energy review for promoting renewable energy sources Jean Philippe Praenea,∗, Damien Fakraa, Fiona Benarda, Leslie Ayagapina aPIMENT Laboratory - University of la R´eunion,117 Rue du General Ailleret - 97430 Le Tampon - Reunion Abstract At present, energy represents a key element in the social and economic develop- ment of a territory.
