It all started with an eccentric Dutchman’s fishing trips to the remote Lake Turkana in northern Kenya where he was confronted by strong, nearly constant, winds. Now Africa’s largest wind farm is a reality

Finally extra value is added via carpentry. This workshop, also on the Ikondo hydro mini-grid, produces furniture. It also provides training to young people. Electric lathes and other power tools save many person-hours and improve quality. #ProductiveUseMonth #GMGs_Africa

Thanks @sunfunder, AMDA, Empower Energy, Pepin Tchouate (PATRP), Equatorial Power and the @spintelligent peeps for an interesting session @FutureEnergyHub in Nairobi discussing the bankability of #minigrids.

#Minigrids in #Nigeria represent a $20B business opportunity says a new report by the Rocky Mountain Institute. @TFEdigital are excited to be working with @OdysseyEnergyS and @realREANigeria, playing a part of this upswell.

Geospatial analysis shows that #minigrids would be the cheapest technology to provide universal #EnergyAccess by 2030 https://t.co/mjAbKtHGSV #EndEnergyPovertyFaster #SDG7

[Power for All @Power4All2025]

.@OdysseyEnergyS announced that its pipeline had surpassed 550 #minigrid projects, requiring a total estimated investment of more than USD $500 million: https://t.co/bSsYdRN9jD #EndEnergyPovertyFaster #SDG7 #offgrid #solar #EnergyAccess

Here's a few slides from my Future of EVs talk at the BNEF Summit last week. Feedback welcome! #BNEFSummit
1/ We're expecting around 1.6 million EVs sold this year. Battery electrics are pulling ahead of plug-in hybrids, driven by China.

See above for TFE Consulting's latest short piece about subsidies and the off-grid sector. We argue that the sensible application of appropriate subsidies could be the catalyst that tips this nascent sector into rapid scalability. https://t.co/D4EoIVlgxf https://t.co/sXmraZnP3X

Record low price set by ENEL for solar power in Mexico at 1.79c per kWh. That’s absurdly cheap and I hazard that it is going to just keep falling. The future is now. https://t.co/UnTtE86vem

$4.6B subsidies for US Oil? 1% of that to subsidise #offgrid #solar in Africa would change the game forever. https://t.co/hnxNsweHXK

Project Navigator from IRENA helps you design bankable #microgrids for islands. Good stuff. #minigrid #offgridhttps://goo.gl/sCPw2C

[Sam Duby @Supermaximus]

Good to see #minigrids and #energyaccess are on your radar #RichardBranson. What can be done? We’ve got a few ideas: https://t.co/zvzE8hlpTg

Boom, let's get some traction on this people. https://t.co/8aPv57FzLB

We like this! @steamaco & @JorundBuen on why good data is vital for funding rural #energyaccess http://t.co/dfHMTMIJhS
