LIVE from #COP27: "We have a big gender social inclusion policy for #EnergyCatalyst. We don't want people making business innovations or business models that don't fit the entire society. It doesn't make business sense" - Alice Goodbrook, @innovateuk's Innovation Lead - Energy 
.@innovateuk's Alice Goodbrook: #EnergyCatalyst is a 200 million pound program. It has funded over 400 projects in over 1000 organizations. #COP27 #SDG7
.@innovateuk's Alice Goodbrook: If you look at #SDG7 and the opportunity that is, it's a 2.5 trillion market by 2030. That business opportunity is huge. #COP27
In a joint organization with @EU_Commission, the high level roundtable on energy transition at #aef22 is looking at EU-Africa cooperation prospects for #SDG7 and #NetZero.

#SEforALL #SDG7BeBold
Currently in a session on “how to unlock funding for African founders” most times African founders do not get as much funding as their foreign counterparts
Tariye Gbadegesin from ARM says African businesses sometimes are usually sole founded which is a higher risk. She also mentions that they would want to see a proof of capital as well as partnership
Starting now! Cultivating Communities of Practice in the Global South - join us in person at @SEforALLorg's #SDG7 pavilion at #COP26, watch virtually (👉bit.ly/303M1CB), or follow along here for live updates.
Moderator @DavidGumbsRE starts us off: “While finance & technologies are available to transition to clean and efficient energy, and provide access for all while avoiding a climate catastrophe, countries in the global south face severe capacity constraints in their transition.”
This is the story of how a #decentralized, solar-powered millet-milling plant in a remote village reduced drudgery, boosted income & provided financial stability during these uncertain times.

My most recent piece on why gas should power Africa’s Post-COVID growth:

theafricareport.com/39505/gas-shou…
1/5. Facilitating broad-based economic growth for W. African countries to achieve upper middle-income status has become even more difficult of a challenge after #COVID
2/5. Access to affordable and reliable #energy is critical to the region’s development, and its abundant #naturalgas resources should underpin its energy system.
W. Africa cannot achieve high economic growth rates by framing energy policy around household energy.

Providing clean & efficient energy for households in informal settlements in African cities remains a challenge. ACTS presents a series of #InclusiveEnergyKE stories on Youtube

Is the solution for clean cooking solar power? Lots of new data out since this article was first posted. And more than ever the answer is: maybe, but certainly not yet, and perhaps not ever in many places. Let’s start with the basics: what's considered “clean” cooking (THREAD)
There’s a Tier system for defining what is and isn’t clean, which aligns with WHO health standards. Tier 5 is the gold standard, Tier 0 the worst. cleancookingalliance.org/technology-and… You can read about how various stoves stack up in @cleancooking‘s fantastic database catalog.cleancookstoves.org/stoves
Speaking of stacking-that’s industry lingo for using more than 1 kind of stove & it’s crucial for determining whether a solution is actually clean. If you use LPG sometimes, but mostly use a charcoal stove (you’re ‘stacking’ with charcoal), it’s the latter that determines health
@cleancooking @paulbledsoe @Forbes Vital @cleancooking point about lag in $$ for cooking energy under #se4all #adg7. A new coalition focused on energy gap for the rural poor has made a compelling case for more such investment to be directed to last-mile households, & biomass options. 1/ pathways2cleancooking.info
@cleancooking @paulbledsoe @Forbes @andy_grieshop @PamJagger @SETIenergy I was happy to facilitate finding #roomforagreement in Pathways to #CleanCooking meeting last week. I was a #biomasscooking skeptic, like many focused mainly on #PM25, for which #LPG is clear scaleable option. But saw #stacking reality - clean and smoky cooking together in India.
@cleancooking @paulbledsoe @Forbes @andy_grieshop @PamJagger @SETIenergy The declaration that emerged makes vital #cleancooking and #sdg7 points. Those gathered had different vantage points, but overcame resistance to #responsediversity & found common agenda. To me, next step is widening circles. Wicked problems need everyone engaged. #energyjustice
