EP #95: Building Brighter Futures; How To Empower Communities Through Energy Solutions w/ Anthony Mabonga, Managing Director- Bboxx Kenya

Today, we celebrate 3 years of Boardroom Banter! To mark this special occasion, we're bringing you an inspiring conversation with Anthony Mabonga, the Managing Director of Bboxx Kenya—a leader whose organization has revolutionized energy access for over 500,000 Kenyans, providing clean, reliable, and affordable electricity to homes, communities, and businesses that had never experienced it before. Born and raised in a rural Kenyan village, Anthony shares how his upbringing taught him the importance of community and the transformative power of education. These early lessons laid the foundation for a path of academic excellence, taking him to prestigious institutions like Alliance High School, one of Kenya’s top schools, and eventually Harvard University in the United States. We go beyond his personal story to unpack the state of the renewable energy industry in Kenya and Africa at large. Anthony breaks down the latest trends shaping the sector, the unique opportunities waiting to be explored, and the innovative strategies Bboxx employs to meet the distinct energy needs of rural and urban populations. We also look to the future, exploring what’s next for energy solutions across Africa and how Anthony’s personal mission continues to evolve with the impact of his work. His insights are a testament to how individual leadership, combined with a commitment to community, can drive lasting change. This episode is more than just a celebration of our podcast’s 3-year journey; it’s a tribute to resilience, innovation, and a shared vision for a brighter, more connected future.
