SOCAP18 - Renewables in Africa: From Talk to Action
Channel: SOCAP Global
Date: 2018-11-08

Over 600 million Africans are living without electricity, stunting economic development, access to clean water, health and education across the continent. While the number of renewable energy funds has increased, actual investment in infrastructure is minimal and the processes are cumbersome and slow. It’s time to galvanize the financial community to answer this urgent need. This session will explore practical, immediate steps we can take to radically increase investment in renewable energy in Africa.
