"African poverty is partly a consequence of energy poverty. In every other continent the vast majority of people have access to electricity. In Africa 600m people, 43% of the total, cannot readily light their homes or charge their phones." Frustrating to see in the The Economist another love letter to the private sector as the only solution to solving energy access in sub-Saharan Africa. Yes the cost of solar is falling. Yes lots of people have benefited, but unlike other continents, the cost of capital to finance solar in Africa is extremely expensive. The private sector has no incentive, other than receiving generous non-dilutive funding and grants, to provide clean energy to the 43% who cannot afford clean energy. But if that funding does not also offer job and livelihood creation and other wrap-around services to help communities afford clean energy after the subsidies and non-dilutive funding runs out, powering rural Africa remains highly unsustainable. https://lnkd.in/eJ6XFMUz
