The continent is projected to require $29-39 billion in annual investment to meet forecast energy demand and achieve universal electricity access by 2030; The downloadable report aligns with the Energy Finance Forum, co-hosted as part of the upcoming AOP Conference &amp;

the use of competitive auction in South Africa\u2019s Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement program; and the mobilization of multilateral lenders to back gas megaprojects like the Mozambique LNG Area 1 development, supported by an opinion piece from Nj Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber.<\/p>\n<p>Dedicated exclusively to tackling issues of finance for a new decade of intra-African trade and investment,\u00a0<strong>AOP will host the first-ever Energy Finance Forum, as part of the fifth edition of its flagship Africa Oil &amp;
