The [http://www.energy-access-conferences.com/17286/section/13892/international-conference-on-solar-technologies-and-hybrid-mini-grids-to-improve-energy-access.html s-@ccess conference] was a great success in Mallorca! The 135 participants from 37 countries enjoyed the very good balance of complementary topics related to energy access. The Innovation Lab kick-stared the discussion, while the ESMAP side event rounded up the discussion about scaling mini-grids. We are looking forward to the 3rd edition again in Mallorca in Spring 2020!

December Energypedia at COP24

This year, energypedia was admitted to the Conference of Parties (COP) 24 as an official observer organization. We not only attended the COP but also had a booth at the exhibition area to showcase our approach. We shared the booth with GERES and Abibimman Foundation.
It was an amazing opportunity to meet so many energypedians at the event and we thank you for all your valuable feedback. We will definitely incorporate them into our work. 
Click hereto read more about COP24 and the major outcomes.

November Second s-@ccess Conference
