To report on the African continent's fast-developing power infrastructure, with an emphasis on providing early notification of emerging projects which look globally for expertise and technology inputs.

The growth of Africa's power supply (on-grid and off-grid electricity) will support the continent's future development, and African Energy Journal was launched in 1999 to track this growth into the new millennium.

The magazine reports on the development of the African continent's power infrastructure, through new projects and the refurbishment of existing plant and facilities. Africa's various energy options are explored, as are the technical, economic, regulatory and environmental issues involved in the business of power generation, transmission and distribution.

Most importantly, African Energy Journal provides early warning of emerging projects, which look globally for expertise and technology inputs; this information is crucial for companies expanding their business into new opportunities in Africa.

The journal is circulated throughout South Africa and the rest of Africa, targeting senior decision-makers in national power utilities, government energy departments, municipalities, engineering companies, contractors, equipment manufacturers, research institutions and other groups allied to the field of power generation and transmission.

African Energy Journal is published six times a year (February, April, June, August, October, December).

Readership and circulation data is monitored on a daily basis to ensure accuracy and correct targeting. African Energy Journal is mailed independently and addressed personally by name, company and title to a carefully-researched audience.

African Energy Journal was highly commended by the Magazine Publishers Association (MPASA) at the 2002 SAPPI Pica Awards
