The import of solar power technology from China to Africa has surged over the past year. Yet the continent still only produces about 1% of the world's total renewable output, despite being home to vast amounts of renewable resources. This is the backdrop of this week's Africa Climate Summit, ongoing in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where national leaders are calling for more global investment. The World's Host Marco Werman spoke with Abay Yimere, a scholar of climate action in Africa and an advisor for the summit, about the state of renewable progress in African countries.
