EnergyNet Ltd.: Nairobi Provides the Perfect Backdrop for the Future of African Energy, as the Second Youth Energy Summit is Confirmed - Seite 3

Simon Gosling, Managing Director, EnergyNet, adds: “I’m grateful to GEAPP for their partnership as they seek to address both climate change and skills shortages through their network of partners and investments. Not only does the partnership bring in critical investment to provide more travel grants and greater market penetration, but it brings a year-round partnership striving in harmony to put Africans at the heart of their own development needs.”

These development needs grow in significance each year, with YES! acknowledging the fact that future planning must begin now, and must include those who will shape that future.

Simon continues: “It is no longer helpful to state that 600 million Africans lack access to energy as a statistic of relevance, without addressing the fact that this number is only getting larger as population growth continues its war against energy access. By building an all-of-sector alliance to establish the world’s largest network of potential African energy developers, entrepreneurs and MSMEs, YES! will speed up the pace of energy access for millions more people across the continent.”

YES! has a goal of reaching 100 million people across Africa over the next 10 years through its network-based approach to upskilling and industry progression. You can be one of those people in Nairobi this summer!
