Energy sources are dramatically expanding. The world is heading towards more clean and environmentally friendly sources rather than the fossil ones. For Europe, renewable energies accounted for the highest share in primary energy production in the EU in 2021 (40.8 %). In Africa, the situation is alarming and since we share the planet, CO2 emission is affecting all forms of lives on earth.
The company is contributing to creating a greener planet. Energy sources are dramatically expanding. The world is heading towards more clean and environmentally friendly sources rather than the fossil ones. For Europe, renewable energies accounted for the highest share in primary energy production in the EU in 2021 (40.8 %). In Africa, the situation is alarming and since we share the planet, CO2 emission is affecting all forms of lives on earth. At present, 600 million people, or 43% of the total population, lack access to electricity, most of them in sub-Saharan Africa. The need for electricity is essential to normal daily life. Today, 970 million Africans lack access to clean cooking. Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is the leading solution in urban areas, but recent price spikes are making it unaffordable for 30 million people across Africa, pushing many to revert to traditional use of biomass. Africa has the world’s lowest levels of per capita use of modern energy. As its population and income grow, demand for modern energy expands by a third between 2020 and 2030. Energy demand in industry, freight and agriculture grows by almost 40% by 2030. Three-fifths of Africa’s thermal power plants are at high or very high risk of being disrupted by water stress and one-sixth of Africa’s LNG capacity is vulnerable to coastal flooding.
