According to BP Statistical Review of World Energy, an estimated 84% of the world\u2019s energy consumption needs derive from fossil fuels. The persistent increase in energy demand due to economic progress, urbanization and population growth in the South med region will meaningfully impact the primary energy consumption, which is already suffering from shortage. As stated by the World Bank, approximately 28 million people in the MENA region still lack access to electricity, mainly in rural areas. Furthermore, it is likely to experience a doubling of their energy needs by 2040.<\/p>\n<p>There is no doubt that the South med region was no exception to the negative repercussions of the Covid-19 pandemic on the conventional energy market such as the reduction in investments in this sector, the decline in fuel prices fossils and transformations in geopolitical dynamics. This implies that the existing energy infrastructures are no longer suitable and that a transition towards more renewable energy resources will need to take place sooner rather than later. As a response, a number of national initiatives and new investments have been taking place across the region to meet this increasing demand for energy while mitigating the impact on climate. At the same time, this has created a window of opportunity for young entrepreneurs to enter the energy market with innovative solutions for their start-ups.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This session addressed the situation of this sector in the region and the conditions for a successful transition towards more renewable energy resources.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This live stream\u00a0gathered around the table:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Policy makers and national authorities launching specific provisions for Energy players<\/li>\n<li>Tech hubs launching dedicated acceleration programs for entrepreneurs and who catalyze a pool of opportunities for investors<\/li>\n<li>Startups from THE NEXT SOCIETY community renewing the Energy sector and bringing new solutions<\/li>\n<li>Clusters, first witnesses of the sector\u2019s value chain transformation and voice for the sector\u2019s needs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">THE NEXT SOCIETY #NOWANDLIVE are organised by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FEMISE<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/anima.coop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ANIMA<\/a> in the framework of ANIMA international webinar series.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenextsociety.co\/webinar-next-society-now-and-live\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">For more details about this series of THE NEXT SOCIETY #NOWANDLIVE click here<\/a><br \/>\nThis online event will be available in French and English.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<footer class=\"entry-meta\">\n<div class=\"sharedLeft\">\n<div class=\"text\">Share this<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/footer>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THE NEXT SOCIETY #NOWANDLIVE Energy Resources Transition in the South [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":20326,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[8,21,2,235,4],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20330"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20330"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20330\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20332,"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20330\/revisions\/20332"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20326"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20330"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20330"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.femise.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
