Plane Power: How Software And Jet Engine Tech Are Helping Angola Leapfrog Into the Digital Age

May 02, 2017
Available capital isn’t the only obstacle to economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa. Another major hurdle is the lack of reliable electricity. In fact, large parts of the region have no power at all. This makes it hard for entrepreneurs to build businesses, create jobs and generate wealth.
But things are changing. This week, Angola, Africa’s third-largest economy, signed a deal with GE to supply the final 200 megawatts (MW) of power needed to meet the government’s goal of installing 1 gigawatt (GW) of new power generation capacity by the end of 2018.
