New and Renewable Energy Policy Framework 2027-2035
Powering Africa's Clean Energy Future, Made in Africa
Africa has abundant sun, wind, water and land, yet many homes and factories still lack reliable power. This New and Renewable Energy Framework 2027-2035 is a Make in Africa proposal for African governments, regional bodies and partner countries. It is a set of proposals, not law. It aims to help countries use their renewable resources for energy security, industry and jobs, and to build the equipment and skills at home instead of importing them.
An inclusive transition matters. We are dedicated to creating jobs, particularly for young people, through skills development in the renewable energy sector, and we ask wealthy economies to support it with fairly priced climate and industrial finance.
Vision for 2035
Africa as a Maker in the Clean Energy Economy
By 2035, this framework envisions African countries drawing on clean energy at scale while building the industries around it. The key shared components of this vision include:
- Harnessing renewable capacity across solar, wind, hydro, biomass and green hydrogen.
- Building an ecosystem for renewable infrastructure, local manufacturing of energy technologies and storage that strengthens grids.
- Training people across the continent in advanced renewable technologies so that African engineers lead on innovation.
- Attracting fair, long-term green investment, creating a green economy and generating direct and indirect employment.
Mission
Building Africa's Clean Energy Ecosystem
Make in Africa is dedicated to helping build a strong clean energy ecosystem across the continent that speeds the shift to renewables, improves energy security and drives lasting growth. The key shared missions of this framework are:
- Achieving energy security by widely adopting clean energy, so that industries, businesses and households benefit from reliable and affordable power.
- Fostering innovation in green hydrogen, battery storage and waste-to-energy, creating a diverse energy mix for both grid and off-grid users.
- Promoting renewable energy manufacturing by encouraging investment in solar panels, wind components, storage and green hydrogen technologies, so that Africa is a producer in energy supply chains and not only a buyer.
- Attracting international and domestic investment through fair incentives, simple regulation, local content and technology sharing from partner countries.
Ease of Doing Business
Simpler Approvals and Regulatory Support
We encourage African governments to simplify the process for renewable energy developers, with dedicated review teams for project approvals, faster decisions, fewer regulatory obstacles and transparent monitoring of delivery.
Africa Shaping Its Renewable Energy Future by 2035
This New and Renewable Energy Framework is a proposal to help Africa power its growth with clean energy it largely builds itself. Through patient investment, innovation and skills, countries can strengthen energy security while contributing to global climate goals on fair terms.
New and Renewable Energy Framework 2027-2035
Make in Africa invites investors, clean energy innovators and renewable energy pioneers to join this journey and help build a sustainable, green future for Africa.
