Who’s really telling Africa’s energy story?

Hey👋

Welcome to Green Jobs Rising!

In many meetings, our boss always says, “Africa’s green sector is growing and there’s so much happening across the continent, but there’s still very little information out there to support professionals in this sector.” Especially when it comes to data. Most people have very little to go by.

But this is starting to change. One researcher, Sammy Jamar, is helping to bridge that gap. He’s making it easier to understand renewable energy developments in Africa.

Sammy is the editor of Renewables Rising, a newsletter that shares news, data, and insights for professionals in Africa’s energy sector. He tells the story of Africa’s renewable energy revolution, covering the projects, funding, policies, companies, and people shaping a sustainable energy future for the continent. He describes himself as someone who writes about Africa’s energy transition.

Listen, Sammy does the research, analyses the data, and puts it out there for you to read and gain invaluable knowledge on renewable energy, in the African context.

Following Sammy on LinkedIn will open your eyes to what’s really happening in Africa’s energy space. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the transition, discover companies making moves (and possibly hiring), and build your knowledge of one of the continent’s most dynamic sectors.
