June 2020
Hugo Le Picard

Hugo Le Picard, chercheur au Centre Énergie et Climat de l’Ifri, présente un état des lieux de la filière électrique et la digitalisation du secteur en Afrique subsaharienne. Le développement rapide du secteur des télécommunications dans la région a permis la transformation digitale qui aujourd’hui touche tous les segments de la chaîne de valeur du secteur électrique. Hugo Le Picard affirme que si bien ces bouleversements offrent de nombreuses opportunités pour le développement du continent, ils peuvent aussi présenter une menace s’ils ne sont pas correctement appréhendés.

    Nothing better illustrates the positive contribution of the integration of national economies into global value chains than the fact that in the 1990s, the automotive sector barely existed in Morocco. Now, it is the leading export sector, with a production and assembly capacity of 700,000 vehicles, making it an attractive and competitive hub linking Africa and Europe in the automotive value chain. However, the automotive industry is on the cusp of change, with advances in electric a ...

    The contemporary global energy landscape is experiencing noteworthy changes in demand, supply, technology, markets, and investment. These developments transcend conventional oil and gas security considerations. Renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, have become increasingly cost-effective compared to fossil fuels, and the minerals required to produce them are gaining importance. Nevertheless, recent events such as the Covid-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine ha ...
