Houston’s First African Energy Summit


Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner welcomed African heads of state, ministers and Houston-based energy executives and business leaders to the inaugural Houston African Energy Summit.


The guests at the two-day event included the President of Niger, Mohamed Bazoum and Hilda Suka-Mafudze, the African Union Ambassador to the United States. The mayor also greeted representatives from Angola, Namibia, Senegal, Congo, Uganda, Chad, Guinea and South Sudan.


After the welcoming ceremony, the mayor led a roundtable discussion that included, but was not limited to, the fossil fuel and hydrocarbon industry, natural gas, renewable power generation, including hydrogen, coal, solar, and wind power projects.


As the energy capital of the world, the mayor said, “My goal is to bring all sides to the table to have the necessary discussion, bring people together, build relationships and challenge you all to find opportunity.”


After the meeting, the mayor hosted a dinner party for all of the delegations at the Houston Fine Arts Museum.


I attended the event and met many of the delegates during the beautiful evening.
