overview

Transforming African communities by the driving power of Energy.

The time has come to optimize the management of energy resources in Africa in order to improve the daily lives of the region’s inhabitants and enhance the productivity of its economies.

At Slider Block Industries, we believe that a regional solution that goes beyond the efforts made at the national level is imperative to ensure a sustainable energy future in a continent blessed with electrical generation energy resources capable of meeting demands for decades.

Unfortunately, these resources are concentrated in a few communities that sometimes lack the means to develop them. Through a network of investors we are working to develop infrastructure for the production and transmission of electrical energy in African communities.

In our quest to make electricity available in communities in Africa, we are also working to minimize the continents reliance on fossil fuels as a great way of lowering operational expenses and in-turn boosting local economies. While improving efficiency is a big part of this process, we are currently making availability in the projects we manage for future migration to renewable sources of power.

Banking on green energy and powering the climate friendly energy revolution

By 2030, regional electricity consumption is expected to increase by 100%. Meeting this exponential growth in demand by expanding the existing electricity mix would increase carbon emissions by an estimated 102%. But closer regional cooperation will make it possible to adopt cleaner technologies and reduce the carbon intensity in power generation by 32%.

Regional trade will thus enable the development of renewable energy projects that are too large to be accommodated by a single country’s power system. Also noteworthy is the approval of new financing initiatives that help increase renewable energy integration and improve the operation of the regional power grid through battery energy storage—an innovative initiative that will boost investment in renewable energy.

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted rapid growth in the use of digital platforms and applications in all sectors and at all levels. But digital transformation cannot be achieved in the region without better access to electricity.
