Transitioning to clean energy would be very difficult for any 3rd World Country, not just Africa. 2 Likes |

A well-designed independent power producer ownership structure, and the participation of development finance institutions, have a positive effect on the project’s successful implementation 2 Likes 3 Shares |

Africa is a copy-cat continent. Evil people won't allow steady power supply here. |

The powers that be won't allow us enjoy constant electricity. Nigeria is built on corruption, lies and fraud. Leave while you can. 4 Likes |

It will make us rely less on crude oil and I don't think most crude oil producing countries Leadership will want that because of the easy free money they get to personally enjoy. So what can make it possible is if most of the advanced countries buying our crude oil embraces it and no longer need our crude oil. 2 Likes |

Well... I read somewhere that the government of Congo went after the gold found in a village and even retrieved the ores mined by the natives. Like one African government like the other. You'd presume they'll accomplish anything with it. At the end of the day, all that gold goes to the whiteman in exchange for paper while Africans keep moving in circles. You see, African's problem is beyond bad government. It is intrinsic reluctance to shake off a mental lethargy that sees existence as limited to satiation of personal and clannish needs. So never be surprised that the world would always move on without Africans. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Many have read, but how many understands the English here?!! If it werr about Bob Risky, Laycon, or all these yeyebrities comments for don full ground as if we live wirh them physically. Naija don't like enlightened discussions like this topic, probably poverty has also affected our head too. God help bring us our of unfocused leadership. Amen 2 Likes |

tobididemat:I have to agree. I see corruption at the top of the list of the things that will impede the adoption of renewable energy in Africa. It will come in form of greedy politicians hijacking the projects and inflating its already huge capital for profit to make it less attractive for those buying the final energy generated. Just like power sector privatization. 3 Likes |

Over reliance on feeding fat from the proceeds of oil by our greedy kleptomaniac leaders is our greatest undoing. And fit those being optimistic, who would have thought that at a time like this, mist African countries will not have stable electricity? |

Liposure: @OP. You only focused on batteries. There are other renewable energy technologies such as water splitting devices, fuel cells, and metal-air batteries. In fact, Zinc-air batteries have been reported to possess higher energy density than Lithium-ion batteries. So this technology is strongly booming and the prospect is high. If we are to talk of cost, the catalysts used in these technologies are now becoming cheap, because the precursors used in their production have been replaced with earth-abundant materials. I think you should make further findings next time before you conclude that cost will be the challenge. 1 Like |

I'm interested in renewable energy that is why I stopped by to read. Unfortunately the article is not selling the concept of energy but their data analysis prowess. |
