Renewable Energy and Climate Tech Research Topics

[yigakpoa]

Before choosing a topic/research area, please go through our bestpractices.md. You can choose a topic by commenting the number you’ll like to work on and create an issue or create an issue with a fresh topic idea as long as it fall under a section in our roadmap.md. When you’re done, please notify someone from the M&E team to check this out by mentioning (@clentafrica/wg-monitoring-and-evaluation). It’s best when research is done by a team so feel free to work on this with friends

——
