Industry majors, including Global LPG Partnership (GLPGP), World LPG Association, Clean Cooking Alliance, Shell Foundation and Oryx Energies at the meeting insisted on the need for the development of a robust African LPG value chain. Speaking on the backdrop of the continent’s growing population, the stakeholders led by the Executive Secretary of ARDA, Anibor Kragha said the need for energy transition in the face of projected growing energy demands remain sacrosanct. Kragha highlighted LPG as a credible near-term solution for reducing carbon emissions against polluting solid fuels, stressing that health burdens loom in Africa if steps are not urgently taken to transition into cleaner fuels in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
