Collaboration in African Sustainable Energy
Africa faces a crucial challenge in building a sustainable future for Africa. The continent wants to rapidly develop its economy to provide a sustainable future for Africa’s growing population while transitioning to sustainable energy to tackle the climate crisis. Countries like Kenya have the ambition to leapfrog fossil fuels and directly switch to renewable energy. But to realize this vision, well-trained technicians and professionals are indispensable.
Empowering Local Talent for the Energy Transition
This is where Spark Energy Hub, a training center specializing in sustainable energy, plays a key role in building a sustainable future for Africa.With practical training and education, Spark Energy Hub helps local talent develop the skills needed for the energy transition. Thanks to the intensive collaboration with WTS Energy, a fellow portfolio company within TCI-Group, Spark Energy Hub can draw from a wealth of knowledge and experience in renewable energy.
Collaborating to Build a Sustainable Future for Africa
A prime example of this is the partnership with Italian energy pioneer ENI. At Spark Energy Hub, technicians are trained for bio-fuel projects aimed at making the aviation industry more sustainable. These training programs not only contribute to achieving climate goals but also create new jobs and economic opportunities for the local population.
Scaling Up Across Borders for a Sustainable Future in Africa
As ENI expands its bio-fuel activities to Rwanda, the synergy between Spark Energy and WTS Energy comes into play once again. While Spark Energy Hub provides training for local employees, WTS Energy offers support as an ‘employee of record’. With their experience and local entity in Rwanda, WTS Energy can ensure compliant and efficient payrolling, allowing Spark Energy Hub to focus on its core task: developing the skills needed for a sustainable future.
