Making Room for Renewables in Sub-Saharan Africa

Switched On

About this episode

Generation oversupply, not enough transmission, and offtaker risk are just a few challenges facing clean energy developers in Sub-Saharan Africa. Despite these obstacles, projects continue to get built a faster rate than almost anywhere in the world. This week, Switched On speaks with energy analyst Antoine Vagneur-Jones, from BloombergNEF's EMEA team, about clean energy proliferation in this region, what's driving it, and what developers should pay attention to when exploring opportunities there.

This episode is based on a report titled Sub-Saharan Africa Market Outlook 2020.

Switched On is hosted this week by Mark Taylor and Dana Perkins.
