African Energy Access and Just Transition Trajectory Anchored on the African Common Position
This IDTFAA compendium aggregates the findings and recommendations from the work of its members and their partners in 2022. It focuses on the centrality of the 7th Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 7) in implementing the 2030 Agenda and Agenda 2063, reflecting the importance of energy as a key entry point to sustain Africa's economic transformation. During the year, the IDTFAA exchanged on the issues of energy financing, energy technology and energy planning, noting that Africa¡¯s development and commercialization of renewable energy sources are impeded by factors related to these issues. The IDTFAA compendium highlights the related findings while outlining how energy transition offers a real opportunity to address energy poverty in Africa. It determines that the energy transition model of African countries is gradually reaching maturity, with national energy strategies increasingly featuring the development of renewables and the promotion of energy efficiency.
