⚠️ Gas is NOT clean energy for #PoweringAfrica

Many of #Mission300’s target countries are oil & gas exporters, and have already endorsed fossil gas as a 'transition fuel'.

This will lock Africa into a fossil-dependent future instead of leapfrogging to clean, reliable & accessible renewable energy.

„We don’t feel like donors. We feel like partners working on a joint mission. Together we can give 300 Million people access to energy.“ - State Secretary @jochenflasbarth.bsky.social at the Africa Energy Summit in Tanzania, meeting Finance Minister Mwigulu Nchemba. #Mission300 #PoweringAfrica
