Renewables are expected to play a central role in Africa’s power sector development, with capacity expected to grow to 180 GW by 2030 and 1.2 TW by 20504. This growth in renewables presents a significant opportunity for the continent to accelerate its overall economic growth, develop new local value chains, reduce the trade deficit,
and create between 8 million and 14 million good-quality jobs. As Africa’s main trade partner and the leading country in renewables manufacturing, China could be a strong partner for African countries as they develop
local manufacturing capabilities.
