When it comes to #GlobalGateway investments in infrastructure, our top priority is energy.

#TeamEurope will support Africa by:

🔷 better access to reliable energy,
🔷 promoting sustainable energy use.

#AfricaEU

🟢 Investing in infrastructure.

#TeamEurope will provide funding and support for ongoing projects, electricity interconnections & transmission lines across countries, setting up the Africa Single Electricity Market.

#AfricaEU #GlobalGateway

🟢 Partnerships with countries championing energy transition.

The objective is to decarbonise the energy mix, including by phasing out coal, optimising the share of transitional sources of energy and investing in renewable energies as well as energy efficiency.

#AfricaEU

🟢 Renewable hydrogen production for sustainable growth and development.

#TeamEurope will work with partner countries to help develop their renewable hydrogen production.

North Africa is a potential supplier to the EU due to its geographic proximity.

#GlobalGateway

The transition from the status quo today to a world where we have renewable energy is a huge challenge, – but together, we can make the difference.

The #AfricaEU Green Energy Initiative will help us get there.
