Data-Driven Electrification in Africa
Universal energy access is one of the main driving forces in alleviating poverty and ensuring sustainable and inclusive economic growth The energy access sector is undergoing deep transformations as it strives to eliminate energy poverty, but there is a pressing need to equip governments with more actionable and targeted tools for integrated electricity planning. These resources are crucial to maximize the effectiveness of both centralised and decentralised solutions, leveraging off-grid initiatives led by the private sector, such as the deployment of mini-grids and stand-alone home solar systems.These off-grid solutions are essential to provide access to…

Oil security and emergency response
Ensuring quick and effective response to major supply disruptions Ensuring energy security has been at the centre of the IEA’s mission since its creation in 1974, following the oil crisis in 1973. Today, the global oil market remains vulnerable to a wide range of risk factors, including natural disasters, major technical accidents, and geo-political tensions. As oil is expected to remain a major component of global energy demand for the coming decades, particularly for the transportation sector,...
