Sahara Group Promotes Intra-African Collaboration

Leading energy conglomerate, Sahara Group is set to reinforce its call for more intra-African collaboration and investments towards enhancing access to energy on the continent at the Africa Energy Week 2023 scheduled to hold in Cape Town from October 16 – 20.

An annual event, the AEW brings together leaders, innovators, and experts in the energy sector to discuss and shape the future of energy in Africa.

The 2023 theme is “The African Energy Renaissance: Prioritizing Energy Poverty, People, the Planet, Industrialization and Free Markets”. Key conversations at the event will include bringing energy responsibly to more than 600 million people in Africa without access to electricity and over 900 million with no access to clean cooking fuel, among other energy needs in Africa.

Head Corporate Communications at Sahara Group, Bethel Obioma, said the company’s delegation to the AEW would through presentations at different panels and strategic meetings seek to galvanize stakeholders towards a shared vision of collaboration and cooperation to enhance capacity, efficiency, productivity, and sustainability across the energy value chain in Africa.
