The next step? Moving from scattered progress to systemic change — through regional cooperation, infrastructure investment and political will.

REN21 @ren21community.bsky.social · Aug 19

🚀 The shift has begun. Now it’s time to scale.
From green education reforms in Rwanda to cross-border electricity markets, examples of a renewables-based economy are already emerging across Africa.

A renewables-based economy is already taking shape. The challenge now is moving from isolated to systemic change.

REN21 @ren21community.bsky.social · Aug 12

Africa receives just 5% of global #energyfinance — and only 2% goes to renewables. With high interest rates and rising debt burdens, financing remains misaligned with Africa’s development needs.

To unlock a renewables-based economy, finance must be accessible, affordable, and tailored for impact.

REN21 @ren21community.bsky.social · Aug 12

Finance for #renewables in Africa is not enough — and not fit-for-purpose.

💸Finance is the missing piece in Africa’s #energytransition.

Africa’s renewable energy potential can only become an engine of growth if energy, economic, and industrial policies are aligned.

From powering local industry to manufacturing renewables technologies, policy integration is essential to drive jobs, value chains, and sustainable development.

REN21 @ren21community.bsky.social · Aug 7

Policy integration is key: Energy, economic and industrial policies must work hand-in-hand.

⚙️ No industrialisation without integration.

A great new brief on Africa energy from @REN21. Renewables can drive economic development and
industrialisation. Addressing challenges would benefit not only the energy sector but also broader economic sectors, society as a whole, and climate change!
