The African Energy Chamber (AEC) welcomes Libya’s accelerating recovery in the energy sector, as rising production, renewed investment and policy clarity signal the country’s re-emergence as a key African and Mediterranean energy producer. At the Libya Energy & Economic Summit (LEES) 2026 in Tripoli, Libya’s leadership outlined a clear commitment to restoring output, monetizing gas resources and creating an investment environment capable of supporting long-term energy development. Gas monetization is emerging as a central pillar of Libya’s energy strategy. Libya’s energy resurgence also carries a strong regional and pan-African dimension. Investments in skills training and technology will be vital to ensuring that energy development translates into jobs, knowledge transfer and long-term economic benefits.
