On a global scale, concerns exist regarding environmental sustainability and energy accessibility, availability, and security. Africa's renewable energy sector stands as a beacon of promise and challenge. This chapter delves into the critical intersection of entrepreneurial education relating to renewable energy in the African context. With the increasing global emphasis on sustainable development and the urgent need to address energy challenges, Africa stands at a pivotal juncture where innovative solutions are essential to foster growth. This chapter recognizes that a proficient entrepreneurial ecosystem coupled with a comprehensive understanding of renewable energy technologies can catalyze the continent's transition towards greener and more resilient energy systems and consequently bridge the gap between Africa's development drive and the required energy level.
