Africa has the lowest power access percentage in the world at a little over 40%, which translates to more than 640 million people living there without any access to energy. Comparing Africa to the majority of the rest of the globe, per capita energy consumption is incredibly low. – AfDB

For sustainable development objectives to be met, energy access is essential.  Inadequate energy availability hinders the functioning of hospitals and emergency services, jeopardizes educational achievement, and raises business costs, most importantly, innovation. Access to affordable and clean energy provides an opportunity for women, young people, and children in both urban and rural regions; energy access is, therefore, one of the leading forces for inclusive growth. 

Even while renewable energy, in particular, has a vast potential for use in Africa, only a tiny portion is now being utilized. Just a tenth of hydropower’s potential is currently used while producing around a fifth of the world’s electricity. Similarly, geothermal, wind, biomass, and solar energy have substantial technical promise.

Although the AYNAT will prioritize renewable energy, fossil fuels will still be a crucial component of the total energy mix, as in many industrialized nations, with our unique team developing novel technologies and backing cutting-edge solutions to reduce emissions.

Agriculture globally has been one of the most significant contributors to climate change, yet the most affected, and sadly, most African countries rely on Agriculture for survival. We ought to act now with utmost urgency, and this is where AYNAT comes in.
