**4.6 The overall rating**

As alluded at the beginning, the five key components of a mini-grid rating which have been distilled into two profile categories – the "Regulatory framework effectiveness and economic profile" and the "flexibility and performance profile" – will be summarized and combined to produce a final, overall mini-grid rating. The two aforementioned profiles that were created as an intermediate step are the base to attain the final, overall SRMP mini-grid rating.

The five factors of the SRMP mini-grid rating procedure are allocated to two categories – the 'regulatory framework effectiveness and economic profile' and the 'flexibility and performance profile'. These profiles are subsequently combined to receive a final, overall mini-grid rating. **Table 13** presents the results in the case of the Tsumkwe mini-grid.
