“This partnership builds on the Environmental Defense Fund’s long history of effective collaboration globally and locally and commitment to turn science into action to stabilise the climate. We look forward to working with Africa Practice to help put sound science at the heart of Africa’s energy and climate policy discourse and to focus on two immediate action areas: cutting climate-warming methane emissions from Africa’s oil and gas sector and getting its emerging hydrogen systems right,” he stated.
 
The Managing Director of East Africa and Group Chief Commercial Officer at Africa Practice, Richard Kiplagat, commented, “This MoU with the Environmental Defense Fund marks a significant step in our commitment to driving sustainable development in Africa. Green hydrogen is poised to be a significant catalyst for Africa’s sustainable development.
“This clean energy carrier offers immense potential to transform Africa’s energy landscape, drive economic growth, and contribute significantly to global decarbonization efforts.”
He noted that the partnership sought to elevate climate policy discourse, amplify African voices, develop a methane abatement strategy, and engage stakeholders to address methane abatement opportunities across the continent.
