Africa's Future in Clean Energy: How Mineral Wealth Could Boost the Continent's Economy

Agesan Rajagopaul, a partner at McKinsey & Company, Africa, provides deep insights into Sub-Saharan Africa's pivotal role in the global clean energy transition. With an estimated 30% of the world's reserves in critical minerals like nickel, cobalt, and lithium, Africa is poised for an economic surge. We examine how countries in the region are tapping into this potential and what steps they need to take to maximize their economic gains, potentially increasing the region’s GDP by 12% or more by 2050. Key topics include the impact of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), the need for improved beneficiation processes, and strategies to attract critical foreign investments. Learn more about the transformative power of Africa's mineral wealth and how it can shield the continent from economic volatility.
