Towards a low carbon and resilient strategy: validation of scenarios for agricultural, industrial and infrastructure transitions

This technical workshop organized by ENDA ENERGIE, in collaboration with the Ministry of the Environment and Ecological Transition and the Ministry of Energy, Petroleum and Mines, brought together members of the transition thematic groups and key stakeholders to present the scenarios developed by the core groups of the Agricultural, Infrastructure and Industrial transitions.

Towards a low carbon and resilient strategy: validation of scenarios for agricultural, industrial and infrastructure transitions

  • Senegal

This session aimed to present and clarify the contents of the scenarios for a common understanding, to ensure the coherence of the scenarios of the aforementioned transitions and to allow, ultimately, the thematic, transversal group, climate change and sustainable development objectives (GT-CC&ODD) to identify a final scenario which will be in line with those of the other transitions.

LEAP Modeling workshop of the Energy transition core group in Senegal

This was a crucial step for the members of the Energy Transition Core Group, gathered at the Hotel Les Amaryllis (Saly) for an intensive training session on the LEAP energy modeling tool ( Low Emission Analysis Platform).

LEAP Modeling workshop of the Energy transition core group in Senegal

  • Senegal

The week, from Monday 13 to Thursday 16 November 2023, was a crucial step for the members of the Energy Transition Core Group, gathered at the Hotel Les Amaryllis (Saly) for an intensive training session on the LEAP energy modeling tool (Low Emission Analysis Platform). This initiative is an integral part of the ambitious project to co-construct low-carbon and climate-resilient development trajectories for Senegal. The event is part of the broader framework of the operationalization of the Emerging Senegal Plan 2 (PSE2) and the objectives of combating climate change expressed at the level of the Nationally Determined Contribution (CDN). Senegal, in partnership with the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development (MEDD) and the Ministry of Oil and Energy (MPE), signed a protocol with the French Development Agency (AFD) for the implementation of an initiative to co-construct a sustainable development strategy. The main objective of this four-day training session is to develop the expertise of members of the Energy Transition Core Group on the LEAP modeling tool. This includes familiarization with the software’s functionalities, carrying out practical modeling exercises, and initiation to the technical exercise of modeling the scenarios envisaged.
