The Nigeria Energy Transition & Investment Plan (ETIP) Update (2024) provides a strategic roadmap for Nigeria to achieve net-zero emissions by 2060. The plan emphasizes a massive shift toward renewable energy, electric mobility, and clean cooking to address energy poverty and climate goals. It estimates that reaching net-zero will require $500 billion in capital investment above business-as-usual (BAU) levels, which is offset by projected fuel savings of $686 billion.

The Kenya Energy Transition & Investment Plan (ETIP) 2023-2050 outlines a strategic roadmap for Kenya to achieve Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050. The plan identifies an 'Orderly Transition' pathway that balances environmental sustainability with economic growth, requiring approximately USD 600 billion in capital investment. This transition focuses on the rapid deployment of renewables, electrification of transport, and the adoption of clean cooking technologies, while leveraging green growth opportunities in hydrogen and low-carbon manufacturing to create an estimated 500,000 net new jobs.

The National Water Resource Strategy (NWRS2), published in June 2013 by the Department of Water Affairs, provides a strategic framework for the protection, use, development, conservation, and management of South Africa's water resources over a five-to-ten-year period. The strategy aims to align water management with the National Development Plan (NDP) 2030 to eliminate poverty and reduce inequality. It identifies South Africa as a water-stressed country facing challenges such as security of supply, environmental degradation, and resource pollution. The NWRS2 prioritizes equitable water allocation, water conservation and demand management (WCWDM), and the establishment of robust institutional arrangements, including nine Catchment Management Agencies and nine Regional Water Utilities. To implement these goals, the document estimates a total sector investment requirement of R700 billion over ten years.
