In this episode, Gillian-Alexandre Huart, the first CEO of Engie Energy Access, a new energy unit launched by Engie, speaks about creating an integrated business model that can bring together solar home systems, minigrids and national distribution. Engie, one of the world's largest energy companies, has been a leader in pushing for rural electrification in Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia, through its acquisitions of household solar companies Fenix, Mobisol and Simpa Networks, and its own minigrid provider, Powercorner. It has ambitious goals to impact 20 million people, but also to achieve scale and profitability.
