Bridging the energy transition gap in Sub-Saharan Africa
Report summary
Energy transition is the trending topic of 2021 as upstream operators scramble to devise credible decarbonisation strategies. The industry in Sub-Saharan Africa has some catching up to do. Investors and lenders demand action on emissions reduction and diversification. The question for operators is how? Reducing the region's 70 million tonnes of annual scope 1 & 2 emissions is a big ask. Efficiency, renewable power, strategic realignments, M&A, and carbon credits will all play a part but diversification into new energy offers big opportunities too.
