🌍💡Access to affordable renewable energy sources is critically essential for economic development. In Nigeria, the installation of mini-grids is changing the lives of local farmers. This short film is part of Series 2 of “Humanising Energy”, produced for us by BBC StoryWorks to showcase innovation across the energy ecosystem and spotlight the people who are responding to climate change by spearheading solutions to the problems impacting their communities. 🎬 This film showcases the work being done by The Rockefeller Foundation, a major American philanthropic organisation. 👉 You can watch the full episode, and check out the rest of the series, here: https://lnkd.in/evh-d8RJ #HumanisingEnergy #energytransition #renewables #cleanenergy #sustainability
About us
The World Energy Council is the world's oldest independent and impartial community of energy leaders and practitioners. Through our Humanising Energy vision, we involve more people and communities in accelerating clean and just energy transitions in all world regions. Formed in 1923, the Council has convened diverse interests from across the full energy ecosystem for a century, and today has over 3,000 member organisations and a presence in nearly 100 countries. Our global network draws from governments, private and state corporations, academia and civil society, as well as current and future energy leaders. We effectively collaborate on impact programmes and inform local, regional and global energy agendas in support of our enduring mission: to promote the sustainable use and supply of energy for the benefit of all people. The Council convenes leadership dialogues including the World Energy Congress to enable new collaborations and drive impact; and provides a range of practical tools including the World Energy Trilemma Framework to define, support and better manage energy transitions.

Meet the technology company encouraging some of the biggest consumers of fossil fuels to swap to using modular green hydrogen units as part of their strategy to significantly decarbonise hard-to-abate sectors. Ohmium, a leading green hydrogen company, has been developing green hydrogen solutions in Bengaluru, India that are being used across the board. From powering industrial manufacturing, to harnessing the potential of solar energy stores at night, to even fuelling domestic cooking stoves, Ohmium’s green hydrogen units have been specifically designed in response to the energy demands and challenges of the city.
