The GreenShift Podcast | Africa’s Untapped Power: The Missing Link in the Global Energy Transition

In this episode of The GreenShift Podcast, host Nixon Kanali explores why the global push for clean energy cannot succeed without Africa.

Drawing from a bold statement by Equity Group CEO Dr. James Mwangi that “energy transition is just a buzzword without Africa”, this episode dives deep into the continent’s enormous but underutilized potential in renewable energy and agriculture.

With 62% of the world’s untapped clean energy and 65% of unused arable land, Africa could be the cornerstone of a sustainable global future, if the world is willing to invest.

This episode also features insights from ⁠Edward Kinyanjui⁠, the Founder and Managing Director of ⁠Plexus Energy Limited⁠, a company that has been at the forefront of East Africa’s transition to ⁠clean⁠ energy for over a decade.
