Solar-powered grids bring light to rural Nigeria

Andat Datau, a nurse in a Nigerian village, used to deliver babies with a torchlight. Now, thanks to a solar-powered mini-grid, she has reliable electricity. In countries like Nigeria, where 40% lack electricity access, these mini-grids have great potential. Several African nations, including Kenya, Ethiopia, and Zambia, are promoting investment in these systems as solar tech costs decrease, offering cleaner and more affordable alternatives to the population.
