Starting with an analysis of the status quo and the outlook for Africa?s energy demand and energy access, it provides an account of the available resources, including hydrocarbons and renewable energy resources, which are playing an increasingly crucial role. It then moves on to analyze the level of investment required to scale-up Africa?s energy systems, shedding light on the key barriers and elaborating on potential solutions. It also provides a suggestion for improving the effectiveness of EU?Africa cooperation. While mainly intended for policymakers and academics, this book also speaks to a broader audience interested in gaining an overview of the challenges and opportunities of the African energy sector today and in the future. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Energy,$x2191-5520 606 $aEnergy policy 606 $aEnergy and state 606 $aAfrica?Economic conditions 606 $aEconomic development?Environmental aspects 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aNatural resources 606 $aEnergy security 606 $aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000 606 $aAfrican Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W45020 606 $aDevelopment and Sustainability$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913110 606 $aDevelopment Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000 606 $aNatural Resource and Energy Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48010 606 $aEnergy Security$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/121000 610 $aEnergy 610 $aEnergy policy 610 $aEnergy and state 610 $aAfrica?Economic conditions 610 $aEconomic development?Environmental aspects 610 $aDevelopment economics 610 $aNatural resources 610 $aEnergy security 615 0$aEnergy policy. 615 0$aEnergy and state. 615 0$aAfrica?Economic conditions. 615 0$aEconomic development?Environmental aspects. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 0$aNatural resources. 615 0$aEnergy security. 615 14$aEnergy Policy, Economics and Management. 615 24$aAfrican Economics. 615 24$aDevelopment and Sustainability. 615 24$aDevelopment Economics. 615 24$aNatural Resource and Energy Economics. 615 24$aEnergy Security. 676 $a333.79 676 $a338.926 700 $aHafner$b Manfred$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0849043 702 $aTagliapietra$b Simone$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $ade Strasser$b Lucia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299598903321 996 $aEnergy in Africa$91920134 997 $aUNINA
