I don't agree with their use of the word #solarpunk , but this is a really interesting #solar analysis in #Africa:

https://climatedrift.substack.com/p/why-solarpunk-is-already-happening

"This is the template for building infrastructure in the 21st century.

Not government-led. Not centralized. Not requiring 30-year megaprojects.

Instead: modular, distributed, digitally-metered, remotely-monitored, PAYG-financed, carbon-subsidized infrastructure deployed by private companies in competitive markets."

Now think: co-ops.

This is an excellent deep dive, Africa has a real opportunity to leap up the development ladder without FF and to hopefully sidestep the corruption and disappointments of the last 80 years.
