Tool Ideation and Development in the Digitalization and Tools Competence Center (DTCC)
MEI continues its commitment to achieving the SDGs by 2030, by empowering local communities, entrepreneurs, specialists and public sector actors with tools (for measuring, monitoring, evaluating energy access and energy wellbeing, for conducting system design and technology innovation). For this, the Digitalization and Tools Competence Center will build up digital skills through extensive research and content development in the area of digital solutions for climate change, renewable energy, energy efficiency and finance inclusion.
Tool ideation and development is the process of envisioning and defining software-based solutions to address one or more sets of problems by taking into account of a set of primitive components and constraints. The key to tool building lies behind activities which should include capturing clear goals, conceptualizing by developing a clear design vision, framing the content, implementing the approach by constantly analyzing and iterating the process according to the user needs.
