TED: The clean energy hub of the future | Rebekah Shirley

The video discusses Africa's potential for clean energy, highlighting its abundant resources and the need for sustainable power systems. Despite this potential, financial barriers hinder progress, with Africa receiving only a small fraction of global clean energy finance. Local enterprises are innovating in clean energy, but international cooperation and fair financing are crucial for scaling these efforts. The video calls for ambitious commitments to provide long-term, low-cost financing to support Africa's clean energy future.
