The Energy Paradox - Africa's
Untapped Potential
Across Africa, high-voltage transmission lines are weaving a web of interconnected
energy systems that are making the continent's electric power increasingly borderless.
This expanding power trade network is one of Africa's most promising paths toward
energy security. But these lines carry more than electricity; they spark hope and are
rewiring the future of the continent, redefining economies, empowering communities,
and building a brighter, more integrated Africa.
