✋🏾Some say that direction is more important than speed. This is very wrong.
🏃🏾♂️The key success factor in business is agility, ability to shift course, capacity to adapt, power to change.
📉Most companies and businesspeople are afraid of change, and this is very human. Do you remember how kids dislike new things?
☝🏾Agility never comes easy. Beginners will see it as a danger. Successful entrepreneurs - as a distraction. Small firms are trying hard to appear solid and firm, and ban agility. Large corporations are rigid, self-confident, arrogant, and they ban agility.
🔺You need to be always self-aware and cognizant of your surroundings, market and competition, and always fit to changing landscape.

🔺It is great to be different, it is great to be professional, it is great to stand out.
🔺This is so easy in Addis.
🔺Let me teach you. Buy a watch. Or locate clock app on your phone. Even better - install Clock widget on the home screen of your phone.
😎Now you can see what time is it now. Use this knowledge to your advantage. Come to meetings on time, don’t be late, don’t skip meetings.
🧐Plan your route, think about traffic, use your brain or your experience or Google Maps - hope you have one of these.
😇And eternal happiness will embrace you. One way, or another.

☠️ Headline is very eye-catching: “CHINA WILL BAN EXPORT OF SOLAR PANELS”.
But headlines are not a story. The story is completely different. Chinese government is considering to stop exporting of technology to produce solar wafers.
🔆 Production of solar wafers (one of core ingredients of solar photovoltaic panels) is very expensive, extremely energy intensive and quite dirty process, that is presently done mostly in China and that requires raw materials that are being mined mostly in China.
🇨🇳Chinese decision to ban export of this technology HAS NOTHING TO DO with export of solar panels and components for assembling of solar panels. Relax :-)

✳️ How much electricity 🇪🇹 Ethiopia needs to develop? Part I.
In July of 2020 Ethiopian government (Planning and Development Position) have presented “10 Years Development Plan 2021-2030”. One can find it online both in Amharic and in English.
🔺This plan aspires to make Ethiopia an “African Beacon of Prosperity”. First of all, by improving income levels and wealth accumulations “so that every citizen would be able to satisfy their basic needs and aspirations” — beautiful and noble objective.
🔺Ten year plan sets ambitious economic goals that cannot be reached without ambitious growth in electricity production.
Let’s focus on 👨🏾🌾 agriculture development objectives:
1️⃣ increase in crop production by 1.7 times (including 4.3 times increase in crop production through irrigation)
2️⃣ increase in milk production by 2.7 times
3️⃣ increase in meat production by 5.8 times
4️⃣ increase in egg and chicken meat production by 2 times
5️⃣ increase in fish production by 4.2 times
6️⃣ increase in honey production by 2.5 times
🔺@10 Green Gigawatt for Ethiopia estimates the amount of new electricity generation that is required to support those objectives as 100-150 MW.
The most cost-effective solution is 🔆 off-grid solar+battery - cheapest energy generation that is built right at the location of energy consumption.

🇿🇦 Cyril Ramaphosa - President of South Africa - have declared “state of disaster” over situation with electricity.
🔲 South Africans have 16+ hours of electricity every day.
👴🏾 My family in Summit condominium area in Addis sometimes has electricity for 6-7 hours a day.
☝🏾We know that 85% of 🇿🇦 South Africans have access to electricity while 🇪🇹 50% of Ethiopians do not.
🫣 Shall our government declare “state of disaster”?

🆕 Innovation isn’t necessarily a new invention, new product, or new service.
📈 Innovation can present itself in a form of new business model - a business model that introduces existing technology into existing value chain thus producing revolutionary outcome.
🔆 At @10 Green Gigawatt for Ethiopia we are developing and implementing “Double Green” business model - providing “green” (environment-friendly) energy that brings “green” (financial) advantage.
🎉 Last week this work was awarded with honorary diploma of Global Energy Association - “For contribution to the development of energy in the Africa region”.
