Powering Agriculture: An Energy Grand Challenge for Development (PAEGC) seeks to identify and support new and sustainable approaches to accelerate the development and deployment of clean energy solutions for increasing agriculture productivity and/or value in developing countries. Hear some of the voices of Powering Agriculture: An Energy Grand Challenge for Development from Kenya, where only five percent of the farmers have electricity.
