Innovating pay-as-you-go energy systems for rural homes
Paris Agreement
Renewable energy, such as solar, is crucial for countries to meet their pledges under the Paris Agreement.
Projects like Azuri PayGo Energy help Africa build capacity in solar energy while at the same time delivering co-benefits such as increased time for women and children to pursue educational and economic opportunities, as well as a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
Azuri estimates that to date more than 3,500 tonnes of CO2 have been avoided through its projects to bring pay-as-you-go solar home systems in Sub-Saharan Africa.
