We celebrate our Executive Director, Mr Benjamin Boakye, on his special recognition at the Natural Resource Governance Institute Changemaker Awards in New York.

The distinction recognises the exceptional impact of his work across Africa, particularly his ability to combine rigorous research and technical expertise with bold, public-interest advocacy to challenge decisions affecting some of the continentโ€™s most important natural resource and energy assets.

We celebrate this well-deserved recognition. Congratulations, Benjamin, from all of us at ACEP!

Last week, the Africa Centre for Energy Policy (ACEP) launched the Climate Innovation Hub, a catalytic platform designed to support innovations that can advance Africaโ€™s climate and development goals.

Innovation is not limited to technological breakthroughs. It also encompasses finance, policy and regulation, institutional arrangements, business models, digital systems and operational practices.

In many African contexts, these dimensions can determine whether promising climate solutions are adopted, scaled or abandoned, particularly as countries seek to pursue climate action alongside industrialisation, infrastructure development and job creation.

The Hub brings together entrepreneurs, policymakers, regulators, financial institutions, researchers, corporates and civil society to identify climate and development challenges, develop and adapt solutions, diagnose barriers to deployment, and reduce the technical, commercial, financial, regulatory and institutional risks that prevent promising innovations from reaching scale.

The first cohort comprises six young innovators working across diverse fields, bringing forward ideas and solutions aimed at addressing some of Africaโ€™s pressing climate and development challenges.

Through the Hub, ACEP will support these innovators as they test, strengthen and advance their solutions, while creating pathways for promising ideas to move beyond the prototype stage and towards real-world impact.

We are grateful to OXFAM in Ghana for their support.

The Africa Centre for Energy Policy participated in the 14th Conference on Climate Change and Development in Africa (CCDA-XIV), hosted by the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) in Addis Ababa.

As a continental strategy-setting platform ahead of COP31, CCDA-XIV focused on strengthening African agency in global climate governance: moving beyond what Africa should seek from the global climate process to what Africa can propose, shape and advance.

Against this backdrop, ACEP Executive Director Benjamin Boakye moderated a session on Just Transitions and Critical Minerals Governance, highlighting the need for sound economic decisions, competitive value chains, effective industrial policy and financing to translate Africaโ€™s mineral wealth into lasting economic value.

Africa Centre for Energy Policy continues to follow and contribute to the conversations leading up to COP31, COP32 and beyond.
