Ahead of the EU-Africa Summit, the conference will try to liaise with the discussions held at the EU-Africa Business Forum on green energy transition, held on 16 and 20-21 April 2021, and the identified challenges that Africa is facing concerning the access to clean and reliable energy. Africa’s prospects present Europe with opportunities in many pivotal areas, such as inclusive and sustainable growth, as well as the twin transition, while the future strategy should support PPPs and include the private sector in order to be successful.
