Two-thirds of this population live in sub-Saharan Africa. The grids are designed to distribute electricity generated by solar panels, wind turbines, battery storage, hydropower, diesel generators, and other renewable sources. Minigrids offer a reliable, affordable solution to bring power to remote communities.

However, the raw materials for batteries are, in most cases, imported into China from Africa and refined before being exported to Europe. Automakers in Europe can lower their emissions by shortening the transport distance and capitalizing on the DRC’s hydroelectric powered grid and proximity to raw materials.
