This cooperative agreement grant from Power Africa is established to support and manage a Senior Advisors Group. The primary purpose of this grant is to empower the Senior Advisors Group to provide crucial support to Heads of State and senior Ministerial officials in select Power Africa Focus Countries. The aim is to significantly advance each country’s energy reform agenda. The advisors will tailor their guidance based on the specific energy reform strategy, existing challenges, and emerging opportunities within each nation. This initiative will strategically focus on three Power Africa Focus Countries where this advisory model can yield the greatest impact, effectively complement existing energy sector efforts, and successfully garner the necessary support from host governments to ensure successful implementation of reforms.
