The launch ceremony was presided over by Namibia\u2019s Minister of Mines and Energy, Tom Alweendo.<\/p>\n<p>Energy Invest: Namibia 2023, produced by Energy Capital &amp; Power (ECP) and endorsed by the Ministry of Mines and Energy, marks a significant milestone in Namibia\u2019s energy development journey, positioning the country on the global energy stage. This comprehensive publication traces Namibia\u2019s journey from upstream exploration to downstream processing capacity and outlines the ambitious goal of becoming the energy capital of the continent by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>Minister Alweendo, in his opening address, expressed optimism about the recent discoveries, stating, \u201cWith our new discoveries made this year and last year, we are on the cusp of something special. It is our intention to manage our oil and gas sector to transform our economy and introduce market policies to ensure that in-country value is generated from these resources. This book provides extensive information about Namibia\u2019s energy sector, helping to understand our country better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report delves into the role of attractive petroleum contracts and guaranteed fiscal stability in expediting Final Investment Decisions (FIDs) following five commercial discoveries in Namibia\u2019s Orange Basin. It also highlights the need for the establishment of on- and offshore infrastructure to support ongoing exploration activities. A dedicated chapter on the energy transition explores how Namibia can expedite its move away from carbon-intensive development, focusing on green manufacturing and synthetic fuels, as well as the long-term outlook for battery and critical minerals to diversify Namibia\u2019s exports beyond diamonds and uranium.<\/p>\n<p>The report emphasizes regional integration and local beneficiation to create shared opportunities and boost energy trade and investment within the Southern African Development Community. Notably, the publication features a range of Angolan service providers looking to enter or expand their presence in the Namibian market.<\/p>\n<p>Key entities and organizations involved in the publication include the Ministry of Mines and Energy, NAMCOR, Bank of Namibia, African Energy Chamber, NAMPOA, ReconAfrica, Daures Green Hydrogen, BW Kudu, Chamber of Mines, NAMDOCK, The Pupkewitz Group of Companies, Paratus Group, SSGV, Sonair, SONILS, CABSHIP, and MGP Investment, among others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
