The first evidence of a take-off in solar in Africa

The solar panels imported into Sierra Leone in the last 12 months, if installed, would generate electricity equivalent to 61% of the total reported 2023 electricity generation, significantly adding to electricity supply." That's fast. Of course it doesn't displace grid power to a significant degree. Repeat that for three more years and the grid operator has a real problem, though. I guess this is disruption, at scale.
