The African Energy Chamber is set to release its Africa Energy Outlook for 2021.
This edition follows the initial launch of the series with the 2020 outlook report released in October last year.
“We are excited to once again present this document to industry,” said NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the AEC.
“We have worked extremely hard to ensure that we provide a clear picture of what the energy sector can expect in 2021. Our in-depth report is backed by detailed research that not merely touches the surface by presenting the problem but rather, dives deep into how the current challenges can be addressed and what the next first steps are,” he added.
The report also recognised that there were ongoing issues in project delays in Africa, outside of the pandemic and low oil price.
“This year, in particular, has more than ever shown the strong position the Chamber stands to play within Africa’s energy sector. With this, we have been extremely vocal about encouraging African producers and local companies to utilise this time to their advantage, whether that be they re-strategise on project approaches or rework key frameworks in order to increase their investment drives,” a statement by the AEC noted.
