Energy experts convene for Africa’s first energy modelling platform event
The African Climate Policy Centre and its partners are hosting a two-day Energy Modelling Platform for Africa event which aims to contribute to optimized investments for the energy transition in Africa for a low-carbon, inclusive and climate-resilient development pathway for the continent. The specific objectives of the platform are to: - Bring together the energy planning and modelling community in Africa to share experiences, models and data - Support human and institutional capacity in Africa for integrated energy modelling and investment planning - Support the development of centers of excellence energy planning in Africa - Promote efficient and widespread use of open source modelling tools in support of implementation of the sustainable development goals, the Paris Agreement and Africa’s Agenda 2063. The Energy Modeling Platform for Africa (EMPA) seeks to do just that. It will be a place for African energy modelers to come together to learn, share and exchange experiences and create a space that will be focused on Africa’s issues and concerns. The idea for an energy modeling platform arose prior to COP21, driven by the deficit of capacity for energy modelling in Africa.
