According to her, without robust institutional and policy support, many promising clean energy solutions risk failing to achieve long-term impact. Director of the UNU-INRA, Professor Fatima DentonThe Innovate for Clean Agricultural Technologies project, implemented by UNU-INRA, focuses on promoting the adoption and diffusion of affordable and clean energy technologies to enhance agricultural productivity. Professor Denton noted that strengthening systems to support clean energy adoption is critical, particularly in rural communities where access to reliable and sustainable energy remains limited. She emphasised that clean energy solutions must be embedded within broader development frameworks to ensure their scalability and sustainability.
