This must change. In Accra, we are moving from ambition to action\u2014partnering on platforms like Mission 300 to unlock private sector-led investments, strengthen institutions, and build local capacity,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting will highlight key ISA initiatives, including the Africa Solar Facility with a capitalisation of $200 million and the Multi-Donor Trust Fund worth $25 million to de-risk solar investments.<\/p>\n<p>It will also explore solar-powered agriculture solutions such as irrigation and cold storage to enhance food security, while advancing digital and AI-driven energy management systems to expand reliable energy access.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Khanna added: \u201cOur goal is not just to share solutions, but to shape them together with African nations\u2014ensuring no one is left behind in the solar revolution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The ISA, launched in 2015 by India and France, has 124 member and signatory countries and works to unlock investments, reduce the cost of solar technology, and expand its use in agriculture, health, transport, and power generation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Ghana<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
