With vast untapped natural resources and the pressing need to expand energy access, many countries across the continent are investing in solar, wind, and other renewable energy projects. Leading the way are nations like Kenya, Egypt, and Morocco, which have embraced solar farms, wind energy, and geothermal projects. With South Africa's ambitious Integrated Resource Plan, the country is set to diversify its energy portfolio significantly, incorporating wind, solar, and hydropower to reduce its reliance on coal. The implications for Africa’s energy security, economic development, and climate resilience are profound—but they depend significantly on one crucial factor: logistics. 1-272063 Mon, 28 Sep 2026 11:23:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Logistics & Transport Africa https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/uber-exits-nigeria-after-12-years-853783a Uber Technologies has ended its operations in Nigeria, bringing its 12-year presence in the country to a close. 1-271419 Thu, 03 Sep 2026 10:30:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Logistics & Transport Africa https://www.bizcommunity.com/article/to-the-next-25-years-of-business-communications-and-conversations-967784a On 20 August 2001, the first Bizcommunity newsletter was sent, marking the beginning of a publishing journey that would give a voice to business communities across South Africa. 1-270974 Thu, 20 Aug 2026 11:04:00 +0200 Bizcommunity Logistics & Transport Africa https://www.bizcommunity.africa/article/3-shifts-that-will-translate-manufacturing-potential-into-sustainable-growth-for-africa-967714a The ambition is real and the potential is real, but the translation into competitive, bankable industrial output is where Africa keeps falling short.
