This session will focus on the challenges and opportunities for bringing renewable energy solutions to last-mile communities in Africa. We will delve into innovative technologies and strategies for increasing access to clean energy in remote and underserved areas and examine the potential for these solutions to promote economic development and improve the quality of life for local residents. We will also discuss the role of policy and investment in driving the adoption and scaling of renewable energy in last-mile communities. Participants will come away with a deeper understanding of the opportunities and challenges involved in bringing renewable energy to Africa’s last-mile communities and will be equipped to take action toward sustainable energy solutions.
