Approximately 600 million people in Africa do not have access to electricity, which has led to discussions about a just energy transition. This transition seeks to provide renewable energy sources without imposing excessive costs on communities. The impacts of climate change are felt acutely in Africa, where many countries are vulnerable to extreme weather. The debate includes the continued use of fossil fuels, the need for funding, and the importance of political support. Initiatives like Mission 300 aim to expand electricity access, but challenges remain, including the reliance on wood for cooking and the need for affordable energy solutions. Countries like Ghana and Kenya are making strides in renewable energy, but the transition requires careful planning to avoid negative impacts on communities.
