Report: Ernie Moniz, U.S Department of Energy
The highlight speech of Day 4 of the conference was one that was made by Ernie Moniz, Under Secretary of Energy, U.S Department of Energy.His speech was mainly focused on the private sector where he said that the sponsorship of the private sector was one of the positive ways of ensuring a great success, especially when it came to areas of energy related issues. He said that the U.S companies played quite a big role because they sustained countries like Nigeria, Angola e.t.c. He went on to say that it was only the private sector that had the means for offshore investments and to upgrade technology in Africa. He said that when he goes back to the States, he will meet the new team in power and draft up leadership priorities and Energy sponsorship in Africa would definitely be on top of the list.
