Employment & Entrepreneurship in the DRE Sector – A Gender Perspective

The global energy transition offers unparalleled employment opportunities. Recent evidence shows that DRE solutions have enabled unprecedented opportunities for women in rural communities. An estimated 30-37% of SMEs in emerging markets are owned and operated by women.

DRE solutions can boost rural business development and improve women's incomes and decision-making power. Hence, rural women must be empowered to be active participants in the entire renewable energy value chain - as entrepreneurs, employees, innovators, designers, and decision makers, contributing to the expansion of energy access.

The 7^th webinar under the PWCET series will have experts from the industry and public sector discussing the opportunities and constraints that low-income women face in accessing livelihoods in each level of the DRE supply chain. The interventions will be followed by a panel discussion and audience interaction.
