ACS2: Accelerating Climate Solutions in Africa

The ACS2 initiative (Accelerating Climate Solutions) aims to intensify efforts to combat climate change by promoting innovation and collaboration between public and private actors. In the face of the climate emergency, this mobilization seeks to accelerate the implementation of concrete and effective solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt territories.

A collective commitment to meet the climate challenge

ACS2 is based on a collective dynamic that brings together businesses, governments, NGOs, and researchers. The goal is to strengthen partnerships and pool expertise to accelerate the research, development, and deployment of green technologies and sustainable practices. This collaborative approach maximizes the impact of actions by fostering synergies.

Accelerating technological and social innovation

One of ACS2’s priorities is supporting both technological and social innovation. This includes the development of new renewable energies, energy storage systems, sustainable agricultural innovations, as well as social initiatives to encourage eco-responsible behaviors. Speeding up adoption processes is essential to quickly address the challenges posed by global warming.

Mobilizing green financing

A key lever of ACS2 is the mobilization of public and private funding to support innovative climate projects. By facilitating access to capital, the initiative encourages the emergence of startups and original initiatives while enabling existing projects to scale up. This helps create a financial ecosystem more conducive to ecological transition.

Expected impact and future perspectives

With ACS2, engaged stakeholders aim to significantly reduce the time between the development of sustainable solutions and their large-scale implementation. This acceleration should help achieve national and international climate targets, particularly those set by the Paris Agreement. The initiative thus paves the way for a rapid and effective transformation of production and consumption patterns.
