A CleanTechnica report argues that the true size of Africa's solar energy market has been vastly underestimated, citing a National Geographic documentary touching on solar energy and wildlife, with Egypt among the markets highlighted. The claim is being shared among renewable energy watchers, who say the continent's solar adoption is outpacing official assessments.
Why now: Renewable energy commentators are highlighting new reporting suggesting official figures undercount Africa's rapidly growing solar adoption.
