Energy
Modern life requires access to clean sources of energy for homes, businesses and mobility. Electricity is useful due to its versatility, but there are a number of other forms of energy that can support daily life, for example solar energy for heating water. To ensure that Africa’s development does not worsen the climate crisis, energy sources with low greenhouse gas emissions need to be prioritised.
