At Gridworks, we know that effective and modern electricity networks deliver huge impact by: giving households and businesses access to reliable electricity for the very first time, connecting power in one part of a country to demand in another, and absorbing more renewable energy.
However, Africa’s electricity networks are failing; and unless the continent can attract much more investment from a mix of private, public and donor capital – the SDG targets for energy access, climate transformation and economic growth won’t be met.
