Our hope for 2012: access to energy for all in Africa For ADEA/Energy-for-Africa, 2011 ended with the Energy Congress in Africa held on 5 and 7 December in Dakar. The congress was highlighted by several stimulating presentations and keynote speeches on oil and gas production in West Africa, refining, natural gas and LPGs, renewable energy and project finance. Tullow Oil’s Tim O’Hanlon presentation helped fully understand the super-junior oil company’s strategy engaged in pioneering exploration and production in Ghana, Uganda and….French Guyana (the discoveries offshore Cayenne could mean substantial oil production for France) The presence and opportunity to visit the seismic exploration vessel Dolphin during the Congress on 6 December offered attendees a fascinating and practical extension. Exchanges and cross-fertilisation during the 2 days of the Congress helped enrich ideas of each and all. The Congress was the opportunity to announce the creation of the African Institute for Energy (AIE). January will be focused on setting-up of this educational organization and preparing for the first three training programs offered by the AIE : retail sites safety, energy language essentials, solar energy. For all enquiries please contact us. ADEA/Energy-for-Africa will also organize several conferences: - Energy Summit in West Africa - Energy Conference in Saint-Louis , Senegal, on 23 and 24 May, during the Jazz festival - Energy in Africa Congress in December 2012 in Dakar We truly hope that 2012 will be highlighted by essential progress towards access to energy for all in Africa.
