Research Scope
Rigorous standards for African-led energy data.
We combine local expertise with international research standards. By utilizing peer-reviewed methodologies and transparent data sourcing, we ensure our insights are a reliable foundation for policy and investment.
AER does not advocate for or against specific fuels, technologies or policy positions. Our role is to describe what is true, using the best available data and methods, and to be explicit about uncertainty and limitations.
We welcome partnerships, funding and collaboration. We do not allow any partner, sponsor or government to edit findings or suppress inconvenient results.
Methods are documented. Sources are cited. Contributors are named. This neutrality is not abstract. It is a practical safeguard so that people can trust what AER publishes, regardless of their own position in the energy debate.
