Fresh off the press! Delighted to share my new peer-reviewed article which is free for downloads in the link below 👇. In the article titled "The interplay of #mineral and #energysecurity : A nexus approach to #Africa's economic #diversification", I argue that the increasing global demand for critical minerals can be a double-edged sword for resource-rich African countries (RRACs). I discuss three policy goals for economic diversification in RRACs. (1) development of energy as an infrastructure input for diversification; (2) development of energy infrastructure for energy security; and (3) fostering regional integration. Embedded in the analysis of these policy goals is the policy choice and feasibility of whether RRACs utilise #fossilfuels-based energy or develop clean energy by utilising #criticalminerals.

#Africa accounts for 30% of the world's mineral reserves, 12% of its oil, and 8% of its natural gas reserves. The upcoming #AIRCSummit will feature a crucial panel discussion on critical minerals essential for the global shift to renewable energy and sustainable development. The summit will delve into ethical and responsible strategies for foreign investors to access these resources, emphasizing environmental sustainability and financial integrity. Experts will discuss the investment potential of these resources alongside sustainable extraction practices, environmental impact assessments, and effective resource management strategies.

Global Future Energy Leader, Top 50 Women in Engineering 2024 Winner - Keynote Speaker (DEI & Energy)
#CoffeeChatswithJacqueline🧋 — Wow, we’ve really had some thought-provoking discussions about the future of energy over the past weeks. It’s easy to get lost in these conversations, so let’s do a quick recap of the key topics that have shaped our recent discussions: 1️⃣ 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁: We explored how electricity is essential for daily life and global development. Reliable energy isn’t just about convenience; it’s crucial for health, agriculture, industry, and economic stability worldwide. 2️⃣ 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮’𝘀 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: I shared my excitement about bp’s Greater Tortue Ahmeyim Project (GTA) in Mauritania and Senegal, highlighting its potential to boost domestic energy and revenue while supporting Africa’s energy transition. 3️⃣ 𝗚𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: We discussed the need for global collaboration and action-oriented partnerships to drive tangible outcomes in the energy sector. Advocating for change and improving access to technology and jobs is essential for sustainable development. I issued a cheeky challenge to my home country, Nigeria, and have received a flood of emails from investors doing amazing work in energy accessibility that I’ve acknowledged, but am yet to respond to. 4️⃣ 𝗘𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹𝘁 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: We delved into the ethical concerns surrounding cobalt mining in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), emphasizing the importance of responsible sourcing and environmental stewardship in renewable energy supply chains. 5️⃣ 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆: We recapped the Natural Resources conference I attended during ESG week last year, highlighting the critical role of lithium, cobalt, neodymium, graphite, and copper in the green revolution. Understanding these mineral dependencies and their ethical implications is crucial for a sustainable future. In the spirit of humanizing energy and enhancing engineering innovation for better livelihoods while improving the economy, it’s clear that our journey to a sustainable energy future requires collaborative efforts, but with ethical considerations. As we wrap up the past weeks, let’s continue to openly address challenges and propose practical solutions. Have a fantastic weekend, everyone! ✨ #EnergyFuture #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #GlobalCollaboration #EthicalSourcing #FridayWrapUp #EnergyTransition #EnhancingEngineering
