PowerGen’s Vision
|
The global energy system is evolving. A more distributed, smart, and clean electricity network is taking shape, which will displace the monodirectional, analog, fossil fuel-based system of the past.
With only half of the continent connected to electricity, the opportunity to build the energy system of the future in Africa today is enormous. PowerGen is building this future-ready grid in Africa, guided by our two-part mission:
Transform the lives of 600m people through smarter power
Build the energy system of the future in Africa
|
Our vision is to be the leading renewable utility in Africa by 2030.
