Such a pleasure discussing the potential of carbon markets & #renewableenergy manufacturing in #Africa with Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, on the sidelines of #wef25. We also discussed #Mission300, the initiative to electrify 300M Africans by 2030 & the partnerships needed to guarantee its success.

#Mission300 is at the heart of this year’s Africa Energy Summit. It is a bold commitment to achieve universal energy access for 300 million #Africans. I am honored to join fellow leaders in communicating the urgency, innovation, and collaboration required to turn this to fruition
