37/n One idea (another addition to this #COP28 #glossary of sorts) discussed for the last couple of years in this context is that #Africa might #LeapFrog in its #EnergyTransition - ie, that it doesn't have to go through the #FossilFuel stage but can skip it and go straight to clean energy and renewables. One useful summary of this is provided here by Wartsila (a renewable energy company) but there are many critics. Obviously some real #ClimateJustice issues here.

Wartsila.comPathways for Africa's energy future - Wärtsilä EnergyThis report demonstrates that with the right planning and investment, renewable energy can reduce energy costs and increase energy access across Africa.

We shouldn’t be surprised that the reason Toyota has been lagging on getting #EVs to market is because they have been working on a #LeapFrog move.
