infrastructure

The urban race

Infrastructure demand in Africa
Africa is the fastest-growing continent, with the highest rate of population growth, at 2.55% annually. Almost half (1.3 billion of the 2.4 billion) of the people projected to be added to the world population between 2015 and 2050, will be Africans.

Much of Africa's population growth is urban, and this urbanisation trend is likely to continue, with the world urban population projected to grow from 54.5% in 2014 to 66% in 2050. The consequence of this rapid urbanisation is the fast growth in the numbers of urban residents in specific places. Research shows African governments, together with private sector partnerships, spend up to 52% of their construction projects budget on real-estate, to meet the demands of the growing urbanisation trend.

transport

Africa's plan in motion

Africa is gearing up
The increase in global trade depends on smooth, fast, and less costly modes of transportation. The African gateways have grown substantially both for freight and passengers, supported by the growing international trade of the region.

Africa has risen to prominence as an investment destination over the past few years, so the role of transportation and logistics has taken on greater significance. Africa's future growth and development will depend on the quality of its infrastructure and the efficiency of its transport networks," says Klaus-Dieter Ruske, PwC Transportation & Logistics Global Leader. South Africa is regarded as the best performer in Africa for trade facilitation logistics and is among the best in terms of transport infrastructure. Intra-trade in Africa tends to be low in comparison to its global counterparts because of poor infrastructure. Plans are in motion to build or expand five major ports: in the west at Barra do Dande and Lobito in Angola, Lekki in Nigeria, and the east at Musoma in Tanzania and Lamu in Kenya.

energy & power

Africa's energy is the source

Keeping the lights on
The demand for Energy in Africa is only set to rise with increasing population, urbanization and economic productivity. Energy is the key to development in Africa and the foundation for industrialisation.

Most people in Sub-Saharan Africa face energy poverty, with less than half of the population had had access to electricity in 2018. Even those connected to a power grid experience an average of 54 days of power outage a year – that’s darkness for 15% of the year. In 2018, only 20 per cent of the electricity generated in Africa was from renewable sources. Compared with the rest of the world, investment is low. The irony of Africa’s energy poverty is that Africa is very rich in energy resources, with most of the energy potential on the continent is unexploited.

agriculture

Analysing the soil

Feeding into Africa's growth
Sub-Saharan Africa per capita GDP doubled from US$1,900 to US$3,800. This increase suggests rising disposable incomes for the growing population, with positive implications for food consumption. The urban and rural population demand for food is increasing fast, putting pressure on Africa's food system.

Africa’s growing population and urbanisation point towards rising demand for food crops in the continent and Around two-thirds of Southern Africa’s population is dependent on agriculture for employment, agricultural activities and the sector has been contributing more strongly to GDP growth from foreign direct investment. Future agricultural growth in Africa is therefore not only expected to be driven by favourable domestic demographics but also by external factors such as Asia's rising population. Though the sector remains prone to price and climate volatility, Africa still stands to benefit as global food consumption rises. The Comprehensive African Agricultural Development Programme (CAADP) seeks to drive a continental agricultural revolution, by increasing investment in agriculture.

technology

High mobile product and service demand

Africa Technology innovations will have to impact in Agriculture, Health and Energy
In 2019 the African Union introduced the Digital Transformation Strategy for Africa (2020–2030), recognising that Africa’s digital transformation must be strengthened by policy, legislation and regulation committed to innovative finance models to digitally transform Africa.

The Digital Transformation Strategy set specific objectives to drive the digital transformation, and provides for universal, affordable access to a secure and stable 6 Mbps broadband connection through a smart device; offering a massive online e-skills development programme to provide basic knowledge and skills in digital environment security and privacy to 100 million. Mobile technology remains by far the predominant technology, 477 million people in sub-Saharan Africa subscribed to mobile services, accounting for 45% of the population in Sub-Saharan Africa. Africa exhibits an inner digital divide, with most Internet activity and infrastructure concentrated in South Africa, Morocco, Egypt as well as smaller economies like Mauritius and Seychelles

water

Africa in deep flows

Will climate change turn Africa to desert conditions?
Africa is the second driest continent in the world, after Australia, and millions of Africans still suffer from water shortages throughout the year. According to WWF, Nearly 51 per cent (300 million people) in sub-Saharan countries lack access to a supply of safe water and 41 per cent lack adequate sanitation.

Investment in climate-resilient water infrastructure in Africa currently stands far below the levels necessary to ensure water security for the continent’s people. There is plenty of scope for an African dam-building boom, and there are clear opportunities for Africa to develop its untapped water resources. Africa's Water Vision for 2025, which hopes to achieve sustainable access to a safe and adequate water supply and sanitation, water inputs towards food and energy security are readily available
