The Eastern and Southern African Trade and Development Bank Group (TDB Group) and the African Legal Support Facility (ALSF), organized a five-day training on “Legal Aspects of Energy Transactions – Power Purchase Agreements and Legal Framework for Energy Infrastructure” from 18th – 22nd September 2023 in Nairobi, Kenya for 70 public sector lawyers from across 23 African countries.

Africa is dealing with an energy deficit marked by insufficient generation and distribution capacity, unreliable supply, high tariff rates and limited access to the power grid. Yet access to energy is essential for achieving development outcomes across critical sectors of the economy, such as health and education, as well as minimizing the cost of doing business and ultimately supporting economic growth.
