With over 600 million people in Africa lacking access to electricity, the continent faces the challenge of doubling its electricity generation capacity by 2040 to meet rising demand. Africa has been recognized as a key player in renewable energy exports to support regions aiming to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and achieve net-zero targets. Various financial institutions and funds are actively supporting the energy transition in Africa by offering favorable terms to projects aligned with net-zero objectives. The Global African Hydrogen Summit, endorsed by the Government of Namibia, seeks to attract critical investments into bankable green energy projects in Africa. The Summit, scheduled for September 2024 in Windhoek, Namibia, will feature Project Investment Roundtables focusing on sectors such as Hydrogen, Renewables, Agriculture, and Transportation. To be considered fully bankable, green energy projects in Africa need to meet specific milestones and undergo rigorous assessment of technical and commercial risks by investors. Challenges unique to energy transition projects in the African context include scaling up technology, infrastructure availability, customer offtake, and pricing strategies. The call for bankable African green energy projects for the Summit closes in July, after which the Investor Board will evaluate submissions, paving the way for project developers and investors to engage in deal-making at the Summit. The involvement of organizations like Climate Fund Managers and Deutsche Investitions- und Entwicklungsgesellschaft highlights the significance of the Summit in driving green energy investments across Africa.
