This has triggered an ecosystem of climate-smart innovators, entrepreneurs, and green startups to develop and deploy alternative solutions aimed at closing the energy access gap in their various communities. This narrative isn’t too far off the Nigerian energy dilemma where according to a USAID report, only about 60% of the country’s population have access to electricity.
