PSA’s mission is to mobilise climate action in Africa, amplify African voices through increased visibility in media and public communications, and leveraging this voice internationally. As part of our work, PSA is helping to build a dedicated group of African civil society organisations that will engage the Africa Renewable Energy Initiative (AREI) to ensure it delivers the proposed 10GW of new and additional renewable energy generation capacity by 2020 and mobilise the African potential to generate at least 300GW by 2030.
