Shah, President of the Rockefeller Foundation; Dr. Muhammed Al Jasser, Chairman of the Islamic Development Bank Group; and Damilola Ogunbiyi, CEO of Sustainable Energy for All.

Bridging Africa’s energy gap

The summit highlights the urgent need to close Africa’s electricity deficit, with 600 million people currently lacking access to power. Key discussions will focus on expanding energy access in underserved regions, advancing renewable energy solutions, and mobilising private sector investments.

Two major outcomes are anticipated from the summit. The Dar es Salaam Energy Declaration will document commitments by African governments to implement reforms in their energy sectors to achieve universal access. Meanwhile, National Energy Compacts will outline country-specific strategies with defined targets and timelines for implementation. 12 countries, including Nigeria, Chad, Côte d’Ivoire, and Tanzania, will unveil their initial compacts, with others joining later.
