        Data-Driven Electrification in Africa

        Universal energy access is one of the main driving forces in alleviating poverty and ensuring sustainable and inclusive economic growth The energy access sector is undergoing deep transformations as it strives to eliminate energy poverty, but there is a pressing need to equip governments with more actionable and targeted tools for integrated electricity planning. These resources are crucial to maximize the effectiveness of both centralised and decentralised solutions, leveraging off-grid initiatives led by the private sector, such as the deployment of mini-grids and stand-alone home solar systems.These off-grid solutions are essential to provide access to…
