  • Summary

  • On this episode, I had a conversation with Amit Saraogi and Anshuman Lath to learn how India was able to grow its electricity access from 60% to almost 100% of its population in two decades.

    What can African leaders learn from this? What roles do the private sector and public sector play in providing clean, affordable and sustainable electricity access for all? 

    Please have a listen.

    Amit Saraogi is the Co-founder and CEO of Oorja Development Solutions Limited, a mission-driven company working at the intersection between clean energy and sustainable agriculture. It provides affordable irrigation, milling and cooling services to smallholder farmers.

    Anshuman Lath is the CO-founder of Gram Oorja Solutions Private Limited. Gram Oorja fulfils the electricity, cooking fuel and water needs of remote, tribal communities. With over 70 mini-grid projects in India, Gram Oorja has contributed to promoting energy access in the southern parts of India.
