The Global Electrification Platform
A total privilege to be the consortium lead for ESMAP's Global Electrification Platform. ESMAP is the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program of the World Bank Group (WBG). The effort was supervised by a large team at the at the WBG and KTH lead a group of superstars project partners. They included ABB, WRI, Google, Cambridge and Development Seed and a number of others. Excellent input came from Facebook and their predictive grid modelling. And an amazing partnership has been built with and input has been provided by UNDESA, UNDP, UNECA, UN-SDSN and others. In a few days from writing this, a new web-site will be launched and will distribute that as soon as ready.
In the meantime a webinar of the launch from the UN in NYC can be found here. (And special shout out to the immediate team at KTH: Alex Korkovelos, Babak Khavari and Andreas Shalberg.)
