is facing major challenges the future is being determined now. you ref revealed the last part in our series. in 45 minutes on d w. what secrets lie behind these walls? discover new adventures in 360 degrees. and explore fascinating world heritage sites. d, w world heritage 360, get the out. now, you know, this is did of the news africa coming up on the program. come africa become it well lead up in the green energy revolution. what all the abandons natural resources available on the continent. africa seems perfectly pleased to lead the way. but what challenges lie ahead?

we'll find out. also coming up. could he bola, be over in uganda? the country says it has discharged. it's last and only bull. our patients from hospital raising holds for the end of its latest outbreak. and we meet the congolese born norwegian artists addressing the issues of racism, diversity on colony allison. you have fast solo exhibition. ah, i am eddie micah junior and you are welcome to the program. now, could africa become elidah in supplying green fuel to the wild, but question has become even more relevant to us. russia continues its invasion of ukraine. creatin disruption in europe's energy supplies. germany is one of the

countries scrambling for alternatives, including from the african continent. this week, the country's minister of economy and climates roberts havoc visited 2 nations in south africa as the media on south africa, both of which are look into water green hydrogen. fuel production. in the media have a supported a $10000000000.00 hydrogen projects from each german firm that however concerns that africa would not fully benefit or be in control of its own green energy resources. but harvard was quick to ali those fears, seeing the last thing we should accept as some kind of green energy imperialism will explore or that with an expert in a bit. but 1st, what is green hydrogen? and how can this clean fuel benefit africa? let's get a better understanding from one project in south africa. it's here at a small site around 150 miles north of cape town, that we get

a glimpse of what south africa is. energy future could look like. this is one of the country's 1st green hydrogen projects, and it all works using the power of the sun rather than fossil fuels like coal oil . this to electrolyte effects. they give the ha, the in the you from the are from the sun in. we supply them with your order in the book and it takes place in these 2 electrolyte. and when it happens here, what is the into higher whole? the facility is only producing a small amount of green hydrogen right now, but they are already planning to expand to a bigger commercial site. it's a renewable energy source that is seen as vital in the world shift away from fossil fuels. and african countries are purple in place to lead the way production is

especially suited to areas with plenty of sunshine, the less densely populated. but it has to be done on a large scale. and the cost to put the infrastructure in place will be huge. so lot still to do with many questions remaining to over whether south africa is ready to take advantage. we really need to get some policy regulatory and planning 70, which gives investors the confidence as to move forward in these very significant kind of project. ah, south africa depends on cove the lion's share of its power generation, driven by a large scale coal mining industry. but it now sees green hydrogen as a key element of its transition away from the fossil fuel. and if the country gets this right, it could help transform the world's 13th biggest polluter into a green energy power house, capable of producing 10000000 tons of the stuff by 2050,

not only potentially leading africa, but the world to was a green energy revolution. joining me now is that jacobi willie geta e, professor of energy and development policy, or the faculty of engineering university college london. hello, and welcome to the program said, so come africa, really be a leader in the well green energy revolution. thank you for having me. my answer is there is a strong, theoretical possibility. africa endowed with significance, renewable energy, resources from solar to wind, geothermal, depending on hype, one disease over at different regions. the other or sees that africa are still has many of the critical minerals for renewable energy such as lithium. ready graphite cobalt, copper and rare minerals,

which are absolutely gone for, for the development of renewable energy revolution. okay. so the natural resources are there, that potential is there, but what needs to be in place to achieve that? what, what, having the resources is one thing again and, but it's about converting resources to, to tangible assets. and, and this is where the real challenges and what africa needs to african countries need to negotiate. and to have ambition towards is to have a strong manufacturing base for renewable energy technologies where they participate in the entire value chain of renewable energy. now these would require policies. these would require building institutions would require serious industrial policies that would harness these resources. we just played

a report that was looking into green, hydro didn't hydrogen energy, i should say, especially south and african countries. i would technically, if this were to be possible, what will it mean for africa to harness this source of energy? well, i mean there are going to be some country stuff may not be able to harness this. so i think, you know, we're talking about a handful of countries at the moment. now maybe i saw that, you know, there's also a movement mauritania. so certainly one thing that green hydrogen offers is flexibility because it's not just electricity production, but also being able to transport either genetic energy but also produce ammonia which, which clearly is quite important for agriculture production. so there are some meaningful benefits that could be acquired from the development of hydrogen

energy. okay, just like many, i can't wait to see that become a reality. i mean, a rush as well, and ukraine is making especially to europe seek new sources of energy from africa. but how can i forgot fully benefit from green hydrogen energy and prevent it in general minister habits worth from some kind of green energy, imperialism. i think it's, it's, it's some, it's to be commended. not the minister made that statement. what we have seen in the past is africa being annexed, playing the role of the export of raw materials, but also importer of finished technologies. and that's something that needs to be avoided. i think that's what he meant by, by energy, imperialism, or climate,

imperialism, or some people who would refer to it. so what it means then is that africa has to play a significant role in the entire value chain of reading renewable energy production as well as hydrogen production. it means you know, having the industrial base to be able to benefit in terms of jobs, in terms of economic security and, and other co benefits that come along with that. ok. jacobo want to get a professor of energy and development policy or the university college london. thank you very much for your insights. thank you. thank you very much for having me . ah. you're watching, did of the news africa still to come? to get a new perspective. we meet the award winning congolese born artist behind this new solo exhibition right here, invalid. now before we get into that,

let's go to uganda. the country has received a shipment of the boiler vaccine candidates from the world health organization for clinical trials. that's welcoming news for a country that is going to another outbreak of the disease which has infected more than a 100 people and killed at least $55.00 last week. uganda said it had discharged its last bull. are patients from hospital reason, hopes for the end of an outbreak of that deadly disease? our correspondence, julia's more gambler has more in this report from will bender in central uganda a hospital nightmare. when a patient was rushed to mo band, the hospital in central uganda, doctors recommended surgery medical student hudson concert was on the team that carried out the procedure. he had a good proposition that needed a surgical team to work on them. being their medical in the emergency department. i

was under the weather, this fission decision deserted over to me and i had to prepare the speech. and so that we can operate on that patient, but we didn't know that efficient is probably effected with a boiler virus. the patient died and was later confirmed as uganda is 1st of all a case in the recent outbreak. cancer and his medical team of 6 contracted the virus. he became seriously ill. will was that more mean, vic, i really felt like death is coming. when i started feeling there your there, there is no place you feel comfortable in. and when may friend make or league that i was within a sim room, dade, and i was like, oh, he had to in your going to day the government instituted travel restrictions and a curfew to try to curve the spread many of those infected didn't even know they

had the virus sample coil, didn't that this actually happening? i t, we said having numbers, ways before day, actually instituted it a restriction watermain which we call a lockdown. good to see if all of virus made it into the capital compiler. home to over 3000000 people. contact racing was difficult in a densely populated city. the world health organization states that a country must wait $42.00 days, double the viruses incubation time after the last known case to declare itself abolla free. having survived the deadly virus. cancer wants to return to the front line against ebola. at the moment i was sick, i only needed some one to lake talk to me, encourage me to feed, encourage me to drink something. so when they got healed and a good, bitter when they thank to their doctor who treated me, he actually told me no,

don't. thank me, you go back and do what i've done for you. few gander and the world health organization have planned to start trials for a vaccine against the sudan strain from all this higher mileage on by dr. richard he dro, associate professor mike at a university and a former president of uganda medical association. hello and welcome to the program say so you're gonna have discharged the last known bullet patient. that's good news, but we've been here before. is it too early to celebrate the end of ebola in uganda? for indeed, it's like good news too in the country. i will celebrate my store. since the outbreak started on the 20th of september, we have heard that $142.00 confirmed cases and unfortunately lost

$55.00, all of them, including 12 children. and that 7 has what us. so we indeed celebrate their last question being is church, but we are still maintaining surveillance because from the last, so we need to go up to 42 days before we can say we had done this around 12, a guess of a boy in the country, especially because this was the outbreak of ebola in uganda. why has it been so difficult to eradicate? the disease is, is, is a disease we see in form of a be damage is not a continuous though we have had to measure the 2 types of outbreaks. then divide us, which is better than type this,

or the congo type. demik is a type and it's one of those which previously caused debit came in the country. so it comes in, we get it in the tree, we are along, we are alone. they quit that along. the truss called, belt me up to the combo where some of the 1st this episode, satellites, where we can be trans mesa. so there the environment, it's where this deep thinks brito a bit credit cross making fat breed is, is that to say we should expect possible more variance in the future. and that a boat out is not going anywhere. we do not expect a new variance, but type in 3 different diesel,

especially this to finance a be much because they were in the in the day we were talking about several outbreaks so far. how kind of another outbreak be prevented it if it's an identifying the best office and that if that's the best tough be taught, that's one. but this 2nd most important bit is surveillance data in a single kid affected a piano in environment. if i did, the fight is contained where you are treated. i'm a menu made on the people we lost during the fact they make, we lost them. is that the back of the epidemic?

but i love the way the individual sway identify the ticket and almost all of those who are treated like so. tell us how well equipped is uganda to talk on prevent about possible outbreak. so you're good about is fairly well equipped intensely folks why human resources expertise. we have several different democrats over there on the big administered systems. that's the one of the best in the, in the daily job is dealing with. and it is based on this. but even nobody countryside regions, expertise, we have contain the similar to the mix of going for you. so you may think fairly well. okay, we them to be optimistic. dr. richard e drew from our president of the gun,

the medical association. thank you very much for your time. thank you, glenn. pleasure. ah, now sandra was younger, easy congolese, born the wage, an artist who won the prestigious prize of the national gallery right here in berlin. that was last year. as a result of that, she's now being honored with the solo exhibition at the cities hamburger ban of museum. for her. it's an opportunity to make great art in the truest sense of the word. sandra mo, gina is dwarfed by her huge installation at berlin's hamburger ben hoff. i built my skin with rocks is a mixture of sculpture and video art. a hybrid being created by the norwegian artist, especially for her exhibition at the national gallery of contemporary art. ready with the creature of very much inspired by this idea of the last elephant

that would exist in a world is like thinking about extinction. but it's also thinking about ways of like the responsibility of being the last of your kind and bearing like a body and existing through this world. in 2021, she created sculptures from scraps of fabric, bringing together, seemingly contradictory things, whether the bodies emerge or disappear, threaten or protect remains open. for this, she won the national gallery prize, enabling her to mount the current solo exhibition. the 33 year old was born in the democratic republic of congo. she grew up in norway and now works in oslo in berlin . her art is multifaceted central motifs our bodies, their forms, and their skin, with her ghost like creatures at this years, venice be anomaly. she also addressed the colonial past, which remains ever present like

a ghost. her work is often about living and working in an environment that's under threat this year with sandra. we couldn't have thought of a better artist who is truly, truly immersed and very, very important issues of her work. deals with the question of sustainability and climate and decay a nature race, gender the notion of visibility and visibility of transformation of fluidity. the installation i filled my skin with rocks once again places, skin the center of her work as a universal artistic motif. elephant skin is kind of something that i've been thinking about for some while, whether to be like this idea of really surviving and having a tough skin and also kind of been conditioned to survive in a tough world. now

las sandra machine guy came to our studio for a chat. she's lived and worked in several different locations around the world. so i asked her how these faces, like, are slow nairobi on berlin. have influenced her work. yeah, some sense events made me more. i think fearless, oh, it has also made me carry like a sense of, you know, sensitivity too. and i think it's really important to just generally challenge myself to not be in a bubble. and often when i'm in a place where i'm very comfortable, i tend to move also. yeah. just means while you've been around since i'm running away. yeah. yeah. but i mean, what really is the message you trying to communicate with the work or the artwork that you do? i think what i, why i'm so drawn to speak with the fiction or world building or re world doing it is kind of to rethink existing structures to somehow dare to think of the ways of

being together as human and also how we exist on planet and also how we exist with other non humans to and other living organisms. so i think quite often we just center this human experience and in some sense like science fiction and gives us like this possibility to think of all the worlds interesting out of wilds science fiction. what is the correlation between that and your work focusing on quality, autism, racism, and you know, cultural diversity. i think you on control of science fiction, a lot weight of colonialism. this idea of coming to a place that is like, it's different and it looks. and then we ate encountering, like a new sort of world. and that's why i'm also so drawn to, i think about this question. so wendy, the world and, you know, way, i think for many, it has like, ended in different ways. also through colonialism, what cultures have been erased, and so in some sense with science fiction for me is not only about the future like

future science. fiction is also a way to reclaim a past. it's kind of, it's important maybe based also on my own identity or being born in congo and being raised in no way one with a sense of being uttered. and that is always been such a bad thing. but for me that all that i get the other is also kind of a gift because it's also question of like whether you want to belong to a world that is not really good. yeah. do you have a target audience or is it, you know, because i know artist can easily go like we're putting the art out there and we'll connect with it how the few is that the where you go or you do you have a target audience? i think for me is the most important thing is that i am very honest with myself. and through that honesty, i often reach people and then i can always like experience i, i think because i also work with music and i think in that sense i'm so used to

different audiences. and i find it particularly interesting when i get different views on my art and some will just get it instantly and others will focus on different things. that is what i also find very beautiful that are in itself can gather all this different people in a space and shit. and it being shared. yeah. now, you as a young person, really in the art world, developing all the potential that you have that many young ones watching you right now, give us, give them watching this well discover. i don't know which one. maybe this one. i give them that message. what do you have for them? well, to what i would say is like to truly and honestly, be yourself no matter what, regardless that is truly your gift. and that is truly a power. and to always claim that space for yourself. and it seems quite simple, but it's not if you live in a world that continue to remind you of your lack,

but your lack doesn't necessarily have to be a lack. it's going to truly be a gift. so i love that. thank you very much for saying those words sandra, wishing guy starting to go out. well, thank you very much for the time and all the best with your civil exhibition. thank you so much and that's how we wrap up the show from all our stories. go to d, w dot com slash africa, or visit us on facebook and twitter. not a man's woke up is still going on in god talbot. what they taught them and what are the fans? we leave you with some pictures of africa, football fans reacting to the games. we'll see you next time. i've been out with

ah, with

ah, with we need to become a sustainable as possible. and that's why your green revolution absolutely necessary. european agriculture is facing major challenges.
