dc.description | Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) account for a sizeable share of the Ugandan industry and contribute a lot to its economic development. They are a vehicle through which the rural poor and informally employed Ugandans can transform themselves into the middle and the industrial class of tomorrow. The sector has potential for long-term growth and accounts for approximately 90% of the private sector. In addition to lacking the technical capacities and resources to undertake an analysis on energy consumption, many MSMEs employ inefficient and obsolete technologies which are environmentally inappropriate. | en_US |
