LOI: For Energy WG
Prof. Diouma KOBOR

CHALLENGES
The energy situation, which is very worrying in Africa, is evidenced by the absence, in most countries, of energy policies based on energy development master plans in the short, medium and long term. This situation is reflected, among other things, by a lack of integration of energy activities into development plans and a lack of awareness of the potential in terms of energy sources. It is therefore necessary to initiate and develop scientific cooperation at the national, sub-regional, regional and international levels to ensure that issues related to renewable energies are taken care of by qualified human resources. These renewable energies are more than ever the alternative solution to ensure the energy transition based on sustainable development. In this context ASFAP is a wonderful instrument to develop and accompanist African politics and stakeholders.

GOALS
The Energy Working Group objectives could be:
• Strengthen cooperation relations between African researchers and other actors in energy;
• Identify scientific communities working in the field of energy, energy efficiency and sustainable development;
• Create a dynamic of exchange and sharing of knowledge and know-how between academics, African elected officials and companies;
• Propose concrete solutions to the problems facing government authorities, local authorities and groups and non-governmental organizations (NGOs);
• Facilitate the professional integration of graduates through meetings and exhibitions of professionals in the field.
• Create Physics Excellent Centers dedicated to energy and renewable energy in the hole continent.
• Organize scientific meetings and support researchers and students to take part to African energy meetings
