As Africa's population nears 2.5 billion by 2050, the continent faces a critical challenge: achieving economic growth, energy stability, and decarbonization. Despite vast mineral and energy resources, over 600 million Africans lack access to electricity. We must explore the urgent need for investment in renewable energy to transform Africa's energy landscape and drive economic growth. https://lnkd.in/d7PjJdey

As Africa continues to rise as a leading economic force on the global stage, the energy sector is proving to be a critical driver of the continent’s growth potential. Investment in energy infrastructure—spanning both renewable energy and natural gas—is seen as the key to unlocking sustainable economic development across Africa.
