Abstract: The rapid increase in energy costs due to the double effect of inflation and currency depreciation means that smart choices driven by research, development, demonstration, and sustainability should lead the way, especially as they affect the growth of developing countries. African countries, therefore, have the opportunity to leverage the current global economic situation for sustainable technology enhancement and growth, and also transition towards green and sustainable pathways while securing energy needs and ensuring modern energy fuels from alternative and nonconventional sources. These energy sources, therefore, can easily be made available to the population at affordable and competitive prices. This conference focuses on Africa and seeks to bring together various stakeholders such as academia and research scientists, industrialists, small and medium-scale enterprises, technocrats and political actors, NGOs, etc. to exchange knowledge on the following: 1. Establishing facilities. 2. Producing and marketing different green fuels and renewable energy options. 3. Creating an alternative sustainable future for Africa. 4. Advocating and considering the energy and fuel needs of rural, peri-urban, and urban communities. 5. Shaping the inclusive green pathways within the continent.
