Africa Oil Week\u00a0has launched of first in a series of complimentary reports, produced in association with Wood Mackenzie. The report \u201cOpportunities for Africa in the Energy Transition\u201d, will be accompanied by a free-to-attend webinar taking place this Wednesday (29 July, 15:00 GMT+1).<\/p>\n

Posing the question \u201cWhat does the energy transition mean for Africa?\u201d, the report explores the continent\u2019s role in meeting global hydrocarbon demand and examines how Africa\u2019s position as a hydrocarbon exporter will be challenged under various accelerated energy transition scenarios. It also looks at how net zero goals, electrification, and new technology deployments are accelerating the energy transition globally, whilst providing an overview of how these factors are at play within Africa.<\/p>\n

Moderated by Wood Mackenzie\u2019s Valentina Kretzschmar, the accompanying webinar will include frank discussions around both the challenges and opportunities for Africa in the energy transition. The expert contributors, listed below, will be on-hand to provide cutting-edge analysis and answer questions from the audience:<\/p>\n
