Africa’s energy markets are increasingly cross-border, with pipelines, interconnected grids, energy products, infrastructure, capital and expertise moving across jurisdictions.

The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) creates an important continental framework for trade and investment, with the potential to strengthen regional energy value chains, facilitate the movement of project inputs, and support greater intra-African investment across power, renewables, oil and gas.

But integration requires more than infrastructure.

As CLG Associate Miracle Okoro explores, the effectiveness of the AfCFTA will depend on greater coherence between continental rules, Regional Economic Communities and national energy regulations.

For businesses and investors, understanding how these three regulatory levels interact will be critical to structuring, financing and executing cross-border energy projects across Africa.

The opportunity is clear: use the AfCFTA to reduce, not reproduce, the fragmentation of Africa’s energy markets.

Understanding the Tax Risks Shaping Africa’s Energy Sector

Withholding taxes, permanent establishment risks and transfer pricing are critical considerations for companies operating across Africa’s energy sector.

In the Republic of Congo, understanding how these tax considerations apply can be essential for businesses seeking to structure their operations effectively, manage compliance obligations and navigate the complexities of cross-border energy activities.

This article, by Antonin Ngambou, CLG’s Tax and Legal Manager, examines the importance of fully understanding these areas and the potential implications for companies operating in the Congolese energy market.

Africa’s oil and gas markets continue to attract global investment, but the attractiveness of a jurisdiction extends beyond the size of its hydrocarbon reserves.

Fiscal regimes play a central role in shaping investment decisions, influencing expected returns, cash flows and the timing of capital deployment. Companies entering or expanding across African markets must carefully assess taxation, petroleum contracts, cost-recovery mechanisms, local content requirements and regulatory frameworks.

As CLG highlights, tax should not be viewed merely as a compliance consideration. Effective tax and legal structuring can help companies manage tax leakage, mitigate risks, secure financing and support long-term commercial objectives.

The most attractive markets will ultimately be those that provide competitive, transparent and predictable fiscal regimes that balance government revenue objectives with sustainable investor returns.

Africa’s energy market is becoming increasingly regional, with cross-border power, oil and gas infrastructure connecting resources, markets and countries.

But building these projects requires more than securing licences and approvals in individual jurisdictions. Investors, developers and lenders must navigate different regulatory frameworks, fiscal systems, foreign exchange controls, local content requirements, environmental standards and investment protection regimes, while ensuring they work together across the life of the project.

In its latest insight, CLG examines five key considerations for cross-border energy projects in Africa:
•⁠ ⁠Regulatory and government approval frameworks
•⁠ ⁠Investment protection and project continuity
•⁠ ⁠Financing, tax and cross-border cash flows
•⁠ ⁠Land, environmental and local content obligations
•⁠ ⁠Project contracts, risk allocation and dispute resolution

As Africa advances regional energy integration, the legal and commercial architecture of these projects must be developed as one coordinated structure rather than country by country.
