Great to see that our former Innovation Fund grantee @loowatt formalised its partnership with the Municipality of Antananarivo and will extend sustainable and safe public toilet services to an additional 50,000 people in the city:

Great blog on where we are with that whole "Uber for water" question. I think it points to the need to invest in building better tools for decentralized (and centralized!) utility service providers to get more consumer level data.

Our new blog from @zach_whitewater, explores the market dynamics in key utility sectors, implications for the use of #digital platforms, some examples of platform models already deployed and how we might see these scale in the coming years 👉 https://t.co/Zeybh6SMSM #UKAid

Great in-depth look at the behaviors in the #PAYG #solar journey that lead to increase use of mobile services. Really profound for thinking about how much we need partnerships to reach the last mile with #energy and #mobile.
