Energypedia UG received a grant from the Green People’s Energy for Africa - Mozambique (GBE) in 2021 to promote knowledge exchange and sharing among different renewable energy actors such as the public sector, private sector, NGOs and the Government in Mozambique. As part of the grant activities, an online space will be created to consolidate all off-grid knowledge products and enable knowledge exchange on what has been done and what needs to be done for moving the Mozambique renewable energy sector forward. The stakeholders can also use this space to showcase their work and network with one another.
