The off-grid solar industry renews its commitment to improve climate resilience for 1 billion people by 2030

GOGLA is representing the off-grid solar industry at COP27 with a clear message of hope and inspiration: by 2030, its Power 1 Billion Lives Compact can improve resilience for 1 billion people who are among the most climate vulnerable in the world. 

In addition to off-grid industry leaders, the Compact is endorsed by over 100 investors, donors and government partners . This climate commitment underpins similar commitments from, among others, the World Bank, the Netherlands, or the “PowerUp” campaign. However, to achieve universal access to electricity an even greater step change in ambition is needed, and funding for off-grid solar must increase by 10x.
