The Green Energy Leapfrog

The Green Energy Leapfrog
Headline: Forget Coal: Africa is Re-imagining the Industrial Revolution
The West built its wealth on smog and carbon. Africa doesn't have to. With the world’s highest solar potential and massive deposits of "green minerals" like cobalt and lithium, the continent is positioned to be the lungs—and the battery—of the global economy.
We are seeing "Energy-as-a-Service" startups in Rwanda and Ethiopia providing power to thousands without a single mile of traditional grid wire. This isn't just "going green"; it’s an economic masterstroke. By skipping the expensive, crumbling infrastructure of the 20th century, Africa is building a 22nd-century economy today. The "Green Revolution" isn't a European policy; it’s an African reality
