Nyamolo Abagi Email & Phone Number

With over a decade of experience at the intersection of energy access and sustainable development, I am incredibly passionate about supporting a just energy transition in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Leading the Efficiency for Access Coalition at CLASP, I oversee a matrixed global team in conducting evidence-based research to catalyze technology innovation, shape policy agendas, and mobilize crucial funding to bridge the energy service gap. Our team's collaborative spirit has significantly contributed to the coalition's growth, effectively working towards SDG 7 "Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all."I’m deeply immersed in exploring the transformative potential of AI in development outcomes. I'm particularly intrigued by its application in empowering users as drivers of change, such as developing models for virtual assistants tailored to smallholder farmers. Let's connect if you share this passion!On a personal note, I'm a staunch advocate for electric cooking solutions. Did you know that approximately 2.4 billion people globally still rely on biomass for cooking? Talk about the absurdity of still cutting down trees and exposing vulnerable populations, particularly women and children, to respiratory illnesses in 2024 for a basic energy service. It's high time we found a clean and equitable solution to cooking!
