Hoping to wake up in a world where every African state is a net exporter of electricity
The Sahel alone can provide enough electricity from solar to power the entire Earth.
I didn't do the math and I didn't verify it, but I did read it somewhere, and the original source said Libya which isn't a Sahel country but I assume it is true for the Sahel as well.
I sure hope foreign powers (ruZZian sharks) don't cut my giant gigajoule power-line at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. /s
