The growth of solar power companies in Africa is a significant development with the potential to address the pressing issue of access to electricity on the continent. Still, even with remarkable steps in the past decade—renewable energy capacity surged to 62.10 Giga Watts, the electrification rates are extremely low. Over 640 million Africans have no access to electricity. To put it into perspective, Africa is home to 20% of the world’s population and is the most energy-deficient continent.
