Top 10 African Nations Leading Infrastructure Development Race in 2024

Africa’s infrastructure landscape is changing, with many nations making great progress in development. Based on 2024 IIAG, Africa’s infrastructure is rapidly improving though the continent is currently facing an annual funding deficit of up to $100 billion. According to the African Development Bank (AfDB), Africa requires between $130 and $170 billion per year for infrastructure investment; this show the prospects and difficulties in the sector.

Infrastructure Investment Landscape

According to the World Bank, Sub-Saharan Africa requires to devote about 7.1 percent of its GDP every year in infrastructure to meet sustainable development objectives. At the same time, investment constitutes only 3.5% of GDP, which means that the country needs to increase this figure. Nevertheless, the governments of Africa, private investors, and international institutions are emerging to become a strategic partner in supporting the development of infrastructure projects, especially the AfDB, the World Bank, and China acting as principal project financiers.

There is a marked trend towards the emerging markets that demonstrate the principles of sustainable and inclusive development primarily in renewable energy and transport sectors. Such schemes are aimed at satisfying the long-term stewardship of environment at the same time fulfilling the short-term management of resources for acutely growing urban population in most African countries.
