CleanTech Startups in Africa

CleanTech is gaining traction in East Africa, driven by the need for affordable energy access. Companies like M-KOPA and Daystar Power are leading the charge with innovative pay-as-you-go models. However, market growth is hindered by financing challenges and limited grid infrastructure.
