00:00I am Justin Dargan, and I'm honored to have been invited to address all of you today.

00:05While I'm unable to address you in person due to prior commitments,

00:09I'm extremely excited to share my vision for Ghana's sustainable future.

00:14Ghana stands at a pivotal moment, a nation blessed with rich resources

00:18and an entrepreneurial spirit which is poised for immense economic growth.

00:22Yet the harsh reality of energy poverty affects millions,

00:26hindering progress and disrupting prosperity.

00:28This challenge, compounded by the looming threat of climate change,

00:33demands bold action and innovative solutions.

00:37But what if this challenge were, in fact, Ghana's greatest opportunity?

00:42What if we could reimagine Ghana's energy future not as a burden,

00:46but as a springboard for innovation, growth, and true empowerment?

00:51Ladies and gentlemen, decarbonization is not merely an environmental necessity.

00:56It is the very key to unlocking Ghana's economic potential.

01:01By transitioning to a low-carbon economy, Ghana can achieve extraordinary results.

01:07We can stimulate economic growth by creating thousands of new green jobs in renewable energy,

01:14energy efficiency, and sustainable infrastructure.

01:17We can also attract billions of dollars in foreign investment,

01:20positioning Ghana as the leader in the global energy transition.

01:25We can also reduce Ghana's reliance on expensive imported fossil fuels,

01:30thereby stabilizing energy prices and increasing Ghana's energy security.

01:34We can also improve the health and well-being of millions by providing clean, reliable electricity

01:40to schools, homes, and hospitals.

01:43Through our extensive experience in diverse global markets,

01:47we've witnessed firsthand how strategic investment in renewable energy

01:51can transform economies and uplift communities.

01:54But we also recognize that sustainable development goes beyond economic growth.

01:59It is about empowering communities and ensuring that the benefits of clean energy reach everyone.

02:05And that is where Tangelic comes in.

02:09Tangelic is our non-profit social impact initiative,

02:12hand-in-hand with local communities to deploy solar power and clean cooking solutions.

02:17We're not just bringing light.

02:19We're empowering individuals, fostering entrepreneurship,

02:23and building a brighter future from the ground up.

02:26Through our Sunrise Spectrum Initiative,

02:28we are partnering with visionary organizations across Ghana to expand our reach and impact.

02:33Together, we are creating a movement that is transforming lives

02:38and building a legacy of sustainable development.

02:41My colleague, Justin Williams, the Executive Director of Tangelic,

02:45will share more details about our work and future plans during his presentation.

02:50Ghana has the potential to be a beacon of hope,

02:53a model for sustainable development,

02:56and a leader in Africa's green revolution.

02:58I invite all of you today to join us in this audacious endeavor.

03:03Let us work together to create a Ghana where clean energy is not just a dream,

03:08but it's a reality.

03:10A Ghana that stands tall as a testament to the power of human ingenuity,

03:15collaboration, and the indomitable willpower of the Ghanaian people.
