Webinar: Financing the Clean Energy Transition in Africa - Gaps & Opportunities

30.01.2023

A clean energy transition potentially ensures vast socio-economic benefits to countries across Africa, especially in sub-Saharan Africa thereby improving access to affordable energy, providing employment opportunities locally and scaling up energy security. The major challenge towards realising these benefits is largely due to lack of flow of investments in the clean energy sector.
 
African countries have an opportunity to leapfrog fossil fuel technologies to a more sustainable, climate-friendly and efficient energy strategy which adheres to the Paris Agreement and low-carbon growth. Access to finance can enable a clean energy transition by facilitating socio-economic development in the rural as well as urban communities of Africa.
 
The 8th webinar, organised by Alliance for Rural Electrification and GIZ, under the PWCET series seeks to discuss the gaps and opportunities in the financing of clean energy transition in Africa. The speakers’ interventions will be followed by a moderated panel discussion including interaction with the audience.
