The 23rd AEEP Energy Talks, held on 08 April 2026 and jointly organised by the Africa-EU Energy Partnership (AEEP) and OpenMod4Africa, focused on the electrification of transportation in Africa and the role of open-source energy modelling in supporting integrated and forward-looking energy planning. The webinar examined how electric mobility across both private and public transport systems can be integrated into African energy systems, with particular attention to implications for electricity demand, grid capacity, charging infrastructure requirements, and renewable energy integration, especially in rapidly urbanising contexts where mobility demand is increasing.Â
This fourth edition of AEEP’s flagship report on European Financial
Flows to SDG7 in Africa provides a comprehensive overview of
how SDG7 is being financed across the African continent, with a
specific focus on European contributions. Drawing on a decade
of data (2014-2023), the report provides a datadriven

providing insights on financing approaches and instruments, and
highlights remaining gaps and challenges.
The 22nd AEEP Energy Talks on 26 February 2026 addressed the critical issue of financing the UN Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7), aiming to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all. This session convened experts and panellists to examine the current financing landscape for SDG7 and discuss how financing dynamics are evolving in a shifting geopolitical context, including the role of Africa–Europe cooperation.
The 21st AEEP Energy Talks, held on 5 November 2025, unpacked the outcomes of the Second Africa Climate Summit (ACS2) and explored how these can translate into concrete results ahead of COP30. The discussion convened experts from Africa and Europe to examine how political commitments made in Addis Ababa can drive practical measures in energy access, climate finance, green industrialisation, and just transition pathways.Â
In collaboration with GET.transform, the 20th AEEP Energy Talks on 9 July 2025 delved into the critical role of regulatory best practices in accelerating off-grid rural electrification in Africa. The webinar explored how scaling up best practices and harmonising regulatory frameworks can unlock private investments and catalyse the development of off-grid renewable energy solutions across underserved rural areas.
