Abstract
Africa’s overarching development challenge is providing universal access to reliable, modern, affordable, and sustainable energy to all its citizens. Despite major strides in this area, the pace of progress is insufficient to meet SDG7 by 2030. Achieving this goal requires a substantial scale-up of not only public, but also private investments, as well as adequate planning and enabling policies to attract these investments. Relying on evidence from ten focus countries – Algeria, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Morocco, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia – and beyond, this study lends additional support to arguments in favor of private sector participation in Africa’s electricity grids as a means to accelerate progress towards the achievement of energy sector, as well as wider
development goals.
