Africa Energy Indaba Conference: From transformation to transition

For too many generations Africa has languished with energy systems that provide energy that is neither accessible nor affordable to the majority of its citizens. The focus has been on Transformation of the sector to provide light, heat and clean cooking to the impoverished. The technology revolution that is currently sweeping the globe provides an opportunity for Africa, unburdened with legacy infrastructure, to Transition directly to modern energy solutions. By embracing Digitisation, Decentralisation, Decarbonisation, Democratisation and Deregulation of its energy systems, Africa can experience social and economic development at a pace hitherto only dreamed of.
