What if the future of modern trade is already in China?
Internet helps to save time with a high return on investment. Buying from a mobile and being delivered where you want is time and money-saving. Following a study, 75% of the Chinese population that browses on the internet, does it on a mobile phone. The other conclusion of the study is that there is an overlap between the population that uses the internet and social media and the consumers with purchasing power. With the most Internet users in the world, China has the world’s largest and fastest-growing social networks and e-commerce platforms.
The national online retail sales of goods and services in China reached 1.4 trillion Yuan in the first quarter, 32,1% higher than in Q1 2016. In comparison, retail sales of the physical stores went up by 7.2% only. In many countries where one does not have often a say, online consumers have a say on social networks and can chat with each other and share experiences.
E-commerce market in China
Giving feedback on products, services, and brands, and their validation through ratings is a form of power that consumers have. This gives trust, transparency, and security, that institutions cannot always offer. Health care requires trust, transparency, and security. A McKinsey survey in 2017 showed that 65 % of online shoppers in China are seeking ways to lead a healthier lifestyle.
Next to being the largest e-commerce market, China is also the most innovative e-commerce in the world. Innovations such as mobile digital payment ecosystems, and virtual reality are probably key reasons for the rise of e-retail spending. It seems that this offers availability and value to customers even in rural markets. Incorporating digital payments into existing services will open up new markets for micro, small, and medium enterprises and transform the way people transact around the world, including developing countries. Innovative business models are required for e-commerce in areas where mobile digital payment ecosystems are not yet possible. Source:

China’s Rise to Economic Preeminence
As the world economy continues to grapple with supply chain issues (in part) caused by the “zero Covid” health policy and lockdowns in China. It has become sadly clear just how bad the global economy is vulnerable to regional disruptions, especially if they occur in China, the largest supplier of goods on the planet.
Dr. Said El Mansour Cherkaoui Invited by the Central and Provincial Governments of China
I was invited by the Chinese Government to facilitate the international expansion of Chinese companies and to provide training to the leaders of Chinese companies on the requirements of business internationalization and the development of logistics for market entry including distribution in Western Europe and the United States of America.
This invitation followed the organization of a 3-month training course that I had prepared in Oakland and Berkeley within the Center for International Trade Development (CITD) in collaboration with academic and professional institutions located in Oakland and Berkeley in the San Francisco Bay and Northern California.
These study and training programs provided to Chinese delegations were composed of businessmen, CEOs, and regional representatives of the authorities of central power. They were part of the cooperation agreements between China and the United States.
In fact, since 1995, I have established direct and consulting relationships with Chinese officials when I served as Vice President of the International Business Commission within the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce. I also organized the visit of a delegation formed by members of research centers, businessmen, and leaders of the provinces of Yunnan, Dalian, and other regions of China.
Our prayers and thoughts go out to the valiant Chinese People for their recovery and for that of the People of this World currently suffering from this epidemic which we hope will be banished from all our memories and our human history by the scientific and divine will, Ameen.

The economic and trade relationships between China and the Mediterranean countries have significantly intensified in recent years. The Mediterranean region comprises countries that are strategically located in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, including Spain, Portugal, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco. This article aims to discuss the advantages of logistics, growth potential, Europe as the primary market, and investments in the business relationships between Mediterranean countries and China as the legacy and heritage of the ancient SILK Road from South of Europe towards the East.
Logistics Advantages:
One of the significant advantages of the business relationships between Mediterranean countries and China is logistics. The Mediterranean region is a strategic location for trade, providing an ideal gateway for Chinese goods to enter European markets. The region is situated between the Middle East, North Africa, and Europe, making it a perfect connection point for Chinese products to reach the European market. Furthermore, the Mediterranean region provides China with access to the Suez Canal, reducing the transportation time for Chinese products to reach the European market.
Barcelona is one of the more modern seaports in the Mediterranean and perfect logistic platform to the rest of the European countries thanks to its advanced technology in multimodal transport.
Growth Potential:
The Mediterranean region presents enormous potential for Chinese businesses to invest and expand their operations. The region has a vast population, with a combined population of over 300 million people, providing a vast market for Chinese products. Furthermore, the region has a rich history and culture, presenting opportunities for Chinese companies to develop products that cater to the unique tastes and preferences of the Mediterranean population. The region’s tourism sector is also thriving, providing an opportunity for Chinese businesses to invest in the industry and taking advantage of the experience and industry maturity of South of Europe in countries such as France, Spain, Italy and Greece.
Europe as the Primary Market:
Europe is one of the world’s largest markets, providing a vast market for Chinese businesses. EU market size is over 450 million people with high income.
The Mediterranean region presents an opportunity for Chinese businesses to access the European market through the Mediterranean Sea. The region is home to several ports that provide access to the European market, including the Port of Barcelona in Spain, the Port of Piraeus in Greece, the Port of Valencia in Spain, and the Port of Genova in Italy. These ports provide a gateway for Chinese products to enter the European market, providing an opportunity for Chinese businesses to expand their operations.
Barcelona Chamber of Commerce provide exclusive and high advanced level service to Chinese companies to explore business opportunities in Europe using Barcelona as an Entry Point to the Mediterranean and the rest of the European Union.
Investments:
The business relationships between Mediterranean countries and China provide opportunities for Chinese businesses to invest in the region.
China is today the second largest economy in the World and has to be a priority of focus of all the Mediterranean economies. We need to face this fact as an opportunity of collaboration and business development and never a threat.
The Mediterranean region presents opportunities for Chinese businesses to invest in various sectors, including infrastructure, energy, and tourism. The region’s infrastructure is rapidly developing, providing an opportunity for Chinese businesses to invest in the construction of highways, railways, and airports. The energy sector is also growing, presenting an opportunity for Chinese businesses to invest in renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power. Furthermore, the region’s tourism sector presents an opportunity for Chinese businesses to invest in hotels, resorts, and other tourism-related services.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the business relationships between Mediterranean countries and China present numerous advantages, including logistics advantages, growth potential, access to the European market, and investment opportunities. The Mediterranean region presents a vast market for Chinese businesses to invest and expand their operations. Furthermore, the region’s strategic location provides an ideal gateway for Chinese products to enter the European market, reducing transportation time and costs. The business relationships between Mediterranean countries and China present opportunities for both regions to benefit from economic and trade partnership and the International department of the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce in collaboration with all the ASCAME network association is ready to drive and support to their business success.03/20/2023

KNOWLEDGE-BASE, INTELLIGENCE INPUTS, and INFO CORNERSTONE FOR TRI CK USA READERS
While Ghana aspires to modernize and expand economic opportunity, it is constrained by a struggling power distribution sector and unreliable electricity for homes and businesses. As a leading trade hub in West Africa, Ghana’s economic success carries global significance.
Ghana, like many African nations, has long grappled with energy access and reliability issues, hindering industrialization in both urban and rural communities. Between late 2012 and 2016, Ghana experienced a severe electricity crisis called ‘Dumsor’.
This crisis was caused by a drought from the Volta Lake that threatened electricity production from the Akosombo Dam, Ghana’s largest energy generating station. The crisis triggered a severe power rationing programme resulting in heavy load shedding throughout the country. At the height of this crisis, consumers faced at least 16-hour power cuts every 24 hours. Henceforth, the country’s power sector has failed to keep up with increasing demand from a growing population of over 31 million people.
Ghana’s energy sector has significant debt. The country’s electricity access rate is 86.63%, with 50% of rural residents and 91% of urban residents connected to the electricity grid.
In 2021, 86.63% of Ghana’s population had access to electricity. This is a 0.86% increase from 2020. 50% of rural residents and 91% of urban residents are connected to the electricity grid. Ghana’s electricity access rate is one of the highest in sub-Saharan Africa. The Bank’s April 2023 Africa’s Pulse Report scored Ghana 81.2%. This was followed by:
Côte D’Ivoire (77%)
Kenya (76%)
Senegal (73.5%)
Nigeria (69.1%)
Rwanda (65%)
Gambia (61%)
Ghana’s installed capacity is around 4,300 MW. In 2018, Ghana’s peak demand exceeded its installed capacity by more than 2,000 MW. Ghana’s main sources of thermal power are natural gas, diesel, and sometimes light crude oil. The country exports power to Benin, Burkina Faso, and Togo.

Ghana’s electricity demand is expected to rise from 21.3 thousand gigawatt hours in 2021 to over 36.5 thousand gigawatt hours in 2030. However, Ghana’s actual availability of electricity rarely exceeds 2,400 MW due to:
Changing hydrological conditions
Inadequate fuel supplies
Dilapidated infrastructure
Ghana’s energy sector is expected to see generation/supply shortfalls of at least:
467MW in 2025

Ghana’s Current Response to the Energy Crisis
Ghana unveiled its $550 billion Energy Transition and Investment Plan (ETIA) at the UN General Assembly on September 21, 2023. The plan aims to achieve net-zero emissions and universal energy access by 2060. It also aims to create 400,000 jobs.
H.E. Nana Akufo-Addo, the President of Ghanalaunched the Ghana Energy Transition and Investment Plan on 21 September 2023 during the UN General Assembly.
“This pioneering “Energy Transition and Investment Plan” maps out Ghana’s journey to achieve net-zero emissions by 2060 based on the latest data and evidence, ensuring that as our economy thrives, it does so in harmony with the environment.” Declaration of his H.E. Nana Akufo-Addo, the President of Ghana.
The Energy Transition and Investment Plan includes:
The Energy Transition and Investment Plan is expected to be the government’s main roadmap for achieving these goals. It will help Ghana achieve net-zero energy-related carbon emissions by deploying low-carbon.
Achieving net-zero emissions
Creating 400,000 jobs
Universal energy access
150 GW of solar PV
Hydropower, biomass, solar energy, and wind energy
To address energy shortfalls, the Ghana government introduced policy interventions in 2019 aimed at boosting the utilization of renewable energy and fulfilling its commitments to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG 7). The key of these interventions was the Government’s Renewable Energy Master plan, which sought to among others, increase the proportion of renewable energy in the national energy generation mix from 42.5 MW in 2015 to 1,363.63 MW by 2030.
Ghana integrated some renewable energy solutions into its national grid, which also includes a Hydro-Solar Hybrid (HSH) plant at Banda in the Bui enclave. This HSH plant, managed by the Bui Power Authority, has a hydro capacity of 404MW and a solar capacity of 55MW. The plant makes use of Huawei’s Smart Photovoltaic (PV) Solution to fuel the national grid which supports communities, factories, enterprises, and small-scale businesses of over 24,000 locals in the Banda community. Bui Power Authority – BPA supports the Government’s goals of increased renewable energy penetration in the country and its greenhouse gas reduction obligations.

Power Africa worked with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to conduct and review grid impact and stability studies for the project, which is being built in installments of 50 MW to a total of 250 MW. The project generates renewable energy from solar that can operate during the day to complement existing hydropower production. The facility also features a 1 MW floating solar component. Due to increasingly low water levels, especially during the dry season, BPA opted to add a solar element to the existing hydropower plant. This move enables the plant to operate during the day, harnessing the vast solar radiation resource in northern Ghana while giving grid operators more flexibility to run the hydropower plant during the evening.
The most commonly used energy resources are:
Biomass (46.667%)
Oil (40.52%)
Natural gas (10%)
Ghana’s energy strategy is to diversify its energy portfolio and increase the role of renewables.
The government’s Renewable Energy Master Plan (REMP) aims to increase the country’s renewable energy capacity from 42.5 MW in 2019 to about 1390 MW by 2030.
The REMP is a US$ 5.6 billion investment plan, with more than 80% coming from the private sector. The plan is implemented over a 12-year time-space, from 2019 to 2030.
Ghana’s energy strategy includes:
Ghana’s National Energy Policy focuses on the country’s vast mini hydro potential. Twenty-one micro- and medium-hydro power sites, with generation capacities ranging from 4kW to 325 kW, have already been identified as suitable for power generation.
Renewable energy: Ghana’s goal is to have 10% of its energy come from renewable sources by 2030. This includes adding 520 MW of solar, 325 MW of wind, and 60 MW of hydro from 2022 to 2030.
Net zero emissions: Ghana plans to achieve net zero emissions by 2060 by using six main decarbonizing technologies.
These technologies include:
Small hydro potential: The government’s National Energy Policy focuses on using the country’s small hydro potential. Ghana has 21 micro- and medium-hydro power sites with generation capacities ranging from 4kW to 325 kW.
Energy Sector Recovery Program: The Energy Sector Recovery Program (ESRP) was approved in 2019 to address cost under-recovery in the sector. The program is a five-year plan with 30 reform actions to bring the sector into financial equilibrium by 2023.

Ghana Actual Energy Supply Chain Management:
According to the International Trade Administration, Ghana’s energy sector currently relies on hydro and thermal generation fueled by crude oil, natural gas, and diesel. Thermal generation accounts for nearly 66% of Ghana’s power generation mix, with hydro accounting for 33%. In total, Ghana’s electric access rate stands at just over 86%, with 91% of urban residents and 50% of rural residents being actively connected to the electricity grid.
Ghana imports energy to secure its supply and promote inter-regional energy trade. Ghana imports natural gas from Nigeria through the West African Gas Pipeline. Ghana also imports petroleum fuel because it has limited oil reserves.
Ghana’s over reliance on fossil fuels makes its energy insecure and threatens its economic growth and development. The country’s power sector cannot meet electricity demand. The Ghanaian government is turning to liquefied natural gas (LNG) as an alternative fuel source.
These are the prevailing conditions of the Energy sector in Ghana and the Government is seeking an exit from such dilemma and challenging energetic deficiencies.
The Energy Commission of Ghana was established in 1997. The commission’s main objectives are to:
Regulate and manage Ghana’s energy resources
Coordinate all energy-related policies
Provide the legal, regulatory, and supervisory framework for all energy providers in the country
Grant licenses for transmission, wholesale, and supply
Advise the government on energy matters
The commission consists of seven commissioners responsible for: Licensing, Renewables, Infrastructure, Efficiency. The Ministry of Energy is responsible for:
Formulating, monitoring, and evaluating energy policies, programs, and projects
Supervising and coordinating the activities of Energy Sector Agencies
Implementing the National Electrification Scheme (NES)
Formulating and implementing laws and policies, such as the Renewable Energy Act of 2011

Power Africa worked with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory to conduct and review grid impact and stability studies for the project, which is being built in installments of 50 MW to a total of 250 MW. The project generates renewable energy from solar that can operate during the day to complement existing hydropower production. The facility, which also features a 1 MW floating solar component, is expected to be completed in 2023.
Mr. Yaw Osafo-Maafo, Senior Minister on behalf of President Akufo-Addo, said, “This project further shows my government’s commitment to deliver on the promise to increase the renewable energy component in our energy mix to 10 percent by 2030.”
Due to increasingly low water levels in Morocco, as is the case in Ghana also especially during the dry season, BPA opted to add a solar element to the existing hydropower plant. This move enables the plant to operate during the day, harnessing the vast solar radiation resource in northern Ghana while giving grid operators more flexibility to run the hydropower plant during the evening.
This novel approach has the potential to be replicated with other utilities not only in Ghana but across the West African sub-region as well as in the entire Africa where similar challenges existed. This approach can lead to more sustainable forms of energy generation.
In line with Ghana’s mission to promote access to reliable, clean, and affordable electricity, Power Africa assisted the Bui Power Authority (BPA) to operationalize the first 50 megawatt (MW) phase of its 250 MW solar-hydro hybrid project. This first 50 MW plant resulted in the doubling of Ghana’s grid-connected solar energy and is expected to cut greenhouse gas emissions by more than 47,000 tons per year.
