Yesterday, AcreLog, a subsidiary of ours, signed an agreement with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Global Environment Facility (GEF) and the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) to develop minigrid’s for underserved communities in Lagos and Cross River states, Nigeria. This development is part of the Africa Minigrids Program (AMP), and aims to provide 70,000 disenfranchised Nigerian’s with access to clean electricity, and enhance productive use cases.
The Africa Minigrids Program (AMP) is a collaborative initiative designed to accelerate the deployment of renewable energy minigrids across Africa. The program aims to improve energy access in underserved areas by leveraging clean energy technologies, supporting local economies, and fostering sustainable development.
It is led by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP); supported by the Global Environment Facility (GEF); in partnership with the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), the African Development Bank (AfDB) and the Rural Electrification Agency (REA).
