The Evolving Role of Gulf States in Africa’s Energy Transition
The Gulf states —particularly the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia— are increasingly adopting rule-shaper and rule-promoter roles in their energy and climate relations and partnerships in Africa. They do so by providing financing and investment in renewable energy and hydrogen projects, and exporting low-carbon technologies and expertise, as part of their global diversification strategies. As their projects and initiatives, from both the public and private sectors continue to expand, it is essential to understand the opportunities and risks of Gulf-Africa energy and climate engagements. This Insight also tackles the equally important objective to articulate how Gulf countries could exercise caution to achieve sustainable, mutually beneficial outcomes and foster win-win partnerships in their relatively new roles in Africa.
