Africa is experiencing the fastest population growth globally while having the lowest energy access rates. Around 600 million people lack electricity, and 970 million lack clean cooking energy. Despite abundant renewable resources, such as solar and wind energy, Africa's renewable energy capacity remains largely undeveloped. The continent hosts 60% of global solar resources, with huge potential for solar energy by 2030. However, challenges like minimal local manufacturing of solar panels and high taxes hinder progress. Additionally, Africa has vast untapped hydropower and wind resources, with the capacity to produce large amounts of green hydrogen by 2050. To address these challenges, initiatives and recommendations suggest developing renewable energy infrastructure, strengthening finance access, and enhancing technology transfer. The G20, African Union, and other partners play key roles in supporting Africa's renewable energy potential and promoting green technologies. Initiatives like the African Union Climate Change and Resilient Development Strategy aim to enhance climate cooperation, while programs like APRA and the Moroni Declaration focus on promoting renewables and conservation. By focusing on strategic investments, public policies, and international partnerships, Africa can unlock its renewable energy potential, transition to sustainable energy, and meet its growing energy demands.
