How to Bring Power to 800+ Million Households — Kristina Skierka, CEO of Power For All

Below are two excerpts from the podcast. 

Kristina spoke to Power For All's mission saying, "As our name suggests, our mission is to end energy poverty. When we were starting the company, it was very important to us to take a strong opinionated stance that energy access is simply a right that all deserve. There is no gray area in that."

Kristina highlighted the company's belief in local changemakers as a catalyst to solving energy access problems saying, "First, we take the perspective that policy change needs to be driven by local change-makers. We feel that we can contribute to this process by supporting and upskilling these individuals, but it is ultimately their contribution that gets the work done. Enacting policy change is not glamorous. It often takes the form of showing up to a minister’s office at 8 AM and waiting to be seen at the end of the day around 4 PM and then making the case of how a specific policy change could unleash the development of energy access within a given country. The policy change process is one of persistence."

Here is the transcript summary of the podcast.
