"Let’s call this the power issue, or at least let’s kick things off there.
Between 2010 and 2024, the percentage of humanity with access to electricity
grew from 84% to 92%, even as world population increased by more than a
billion. The number of people without electricity fell from around 1.1 billion
to 655 million. That is a pretty remarkable achievement, except…
The last stretch is proving the hardest. In sub-Saharan Africa, access to
electricity is being outpaced by population growth. A young, growing population
is a boost to economies, both locally and globally, but it’s happening in a
region where just over half the population has access to electricity. That’s a
big problem. Fortunately, as we’ve previously documented, Mission 300 seems to
be making serious inroads, getting distributed solar and mini-grids to those
places where state infrastructure doesn’t reach."
