Sub-Saharan Africa hungers for power

In terms of its per-capita endowment of primary energy, sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is close to the global average. Its 800 million people make up about 9 per cent of the world's population and they are estimated to share 8 per cent of global gas reserves, 10 per cent of the world's oil, and 13 per cent of hydropower resources – as well as much more than their fair share of solar radiation. http://www.powerengineeringint.com/articles/print/volume-19/issue-9/power-report/sub-saharan-africa-hungers-for-power.html
