Africa's vast natural resources - including agriculture, minerals, traditional fuels, and renewable energy - hold the key to unlocking energy access and security. By developing these resources sustainably and building climate-resilient energy infrastructure, African nations can create jobs, generate revenue, and stimulate markets, trade, and economic growth. To overcome the hurdle of limited financing and investment, governments, businesses, development banks, investors, and civil society must work together to create supportive policies and actions. This collaboration will ensure balanced energy security and net-zero ambitions, ultimately achieving universal energy access in Africa.
Attendee insights:
Gain insights into the opportunities for in-country growth within African nations and the crucial role of financing access and collaboration in unlocking this potential.
South-South cooperation brings developing countries significant energy benefits, driving access, efficiency, and sustainability through multiple mechanisms. Successful examples abound in the energy sector: China and Africa have joined forces to deploy suitable renewable energy technologies, boosting energy supply and rural electrification; Brazil is sharing bioenergy expertise with Mozambique; and India is sharing solar energy technology and know-how with African nations. Despite the successes, developing countries face common challenges - energy poverty, mounting debt, and climate vulnerability. To boost economic prosperity and GDP growth, Global South governments need to prioritise capacity building and strengthen South-South partnerships, focusing on improved energy access, sustainable practices, and innovation.
