The Africa Nuclear Business Platform (AFNBP) has announced that its 2024 conference, to be held in Accra, Ghana, from May 27 to May 30, will be attended by Ghanaian President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. The host agency for the AFNBP 2024 conference will be Ghana’s Ministry of Energy. “Many African countries including Ghana, Uganda, Nigeria, Kenya, [and] Rwanda have included nuclear as part of their energy roadmap and have taken concrete steps to achieve their civil nuclear aspirations such as developing a national position and coming up with time-lines,” stated the AFNBP. “It is clear that African countries are serious about nuclear energy.”
