BloombergNEF Forum Cape Town: Harnessing Africa’s Transition Potential

The energy transition presents an opportunity for Africa. A successful rollout of renewable energy technologies will increase accessibility and affordability of electricity. The demand for raw materials to power the transition could also serve as a catalyst for the continent’s industrialization.

Energy transition and commodity experts, and industry executives, discussed the pathway to harness Africa’s potential at the BloombergNEF event "Harnessing Africa's Transition Potential" on 7th February in Cape Town.
