Accra, Ghana: Every barber in the city knows the other barbers in the city.
Every person in the city knows a barber in the city.
The leasing of used solar panels, imported from Vermont, can light a torch - so to past-speak - on rapid adaptation of solar panel electricity in Africa. And Africa is obviously the fastest growing population on the grandest continent. Unless our plan is for Africans to live without electricity and not cook their food, they will continue to buy expensively off of a limited electric grid, and buy illegally deforested charcoal to cook their meals.
Jim and Daniel Puckett, just come here right now and attack this export of used solar panels for good and proper use. That's your thing...Get it over with.
The electric grid in Africa was meticulously studied before I lived in Africa as a Peace Corps Volunteer+-3
See these African Tech Geniuses getting free secondhand panels and measure the gallons / liters of diesel they save every day, every single day, from the ubiquitous diesel powered electric generators which are feeding demand since IMF and World Bank ran out of rivers to Akosomba Dam Hydroelectric fund.
Now see the Boston Globe article by Macie Parker. Or here, if it's paywalled (I'm a Globe subscriber).
Now, go back and see the presentations on Africa's Electric Grid on NERC and several European conference streams. Start NERC at 2h 30minutes
Remember #FreeJoeBenson #FreeHurricaneBenson when these exports are reported upon.
