Deployment of renewable energy in Africa is still far behind according to IRENA data.

A África Oriental nunca se mostrou muito interessada na energia geotérmica — até agora. A política pioneira de transformação energética do Quénia está a inspirar outros países da região.

Until recently, there had been little interest in geothermal power in East Africa. But Kenya's trailblazing energy transformation policy is now inspiring others.

In an exclusive interview with The Guardian (Nigeria) ahead of the African Climate Week in Nairobi, Kenya, Director General of IRENA, Francesco La Camera pointed that the gap between climate pledges and climate action remains a matter of concern.

Francesco La Camera, Director-General of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), highlighted the agency's preparedness to participate in the Africa Climate Week (ACW) 2023, which will take place on September 4-8 2023 in Nairobi, hosted by the government of Kenya.

Africa has vast potential in renewable energy. With the right investments and commitments, it can help lead a global energy revolution, leapfrogging to renewable technologies and improving lives through cleaner, safer energy for household use. CNBC Africa spoke to Francesco La Camera, Director General of the International Renewable Energy Agency.

Kenya has led the way in developing its geothermal energy resources – with support from the land of ice and fire, Iceland.

Africa’s fast-evolving renewable energy landscape is catalysing a shift in gender dynamics, with more women seizing employment opportunities than in the traditional energy sector, according to a new report.
