We were thrilled to have Zambia's Minister of Energy Matthew Nkhuwa cut the ribbon on our 10th solar microgrid in Zambia, and to combine the ribbon-cutting with the public launch of the Africa Mini-grid Developers Association Zambia chapter shorturl.at/efJL5

Governments and donors in #SubSaharan #Africa that adopt coordinated approaches to electrifying rural communities using distributed #renewables can count on meaningful job creation, according to recent data from @reeep in #Zambia: buff.ly/2Y6S5UV #SDG7 #PoweringJobs #SDG8

A proper investigation of an energy access situation requires proper study and analysis of the situation in hand. @PracticalAction designed a multi-layered situation analysis graph, using multiple indicators on different societal and economic levels for their latest publication

Great visit to Ngwerere Standard Microgrid's #Reimaginingpower project, to see how they are delivering solar energy services to communities in remote environments. 60 year old Cecilia told us, 'Ma laite yabwela',... facebook.com/dfidzambia/post…

Thanks, @SteveBeel ! Glad to have you out. And indeed -- when business models converge, customers win.
Replying to @DfidZambia
Indeed great to finally visit @std_microgrid with excellent team on the ground & see impact on lives & SME activity in #zambia. Regulatory models now need to catch up & recognise blurring of on and off-grid for #energyaccess @InfracoAfrica @PIDGorg @DfidZambia #beyondthegrid
Why we do it.
