Africa Power and Electricity Congress and Exhibition – the annual meeting place for leading players across the African power sector
 

For delegates

Africa’s power demand is more than what we are able to supply at the moment. It is costing our economies billions and a solution should be sought immediately.

The Africa Power & Electricity Congress & Expo intends to solve the continent’s power shortage.

The conference will be centred around solving the following problems throughout Africa:

  • The state of the power crisis from then to now – where does Africa stand a year on?
  • Are the implemented projects on track
    – if not, why?
  • What are the new issues and challenges?
  • The emergence of alternative and renewable energy projects as commercially viable options
  • The power crunch – how do we meet the demand?
And more...
 
Attend and
  • Benefit from solutions and innovations in dealing with the higher-than-anticipated demand and Africa’s power crisis
  • Source funding/investment to increase generation capacity
  • Learn about investing in optimal future energy mix – renewable and alternative energy
  • Get an update on the newly implemented power crisis strategies, including nuclear power, the rejuvenated power stations, hydro power projects etc.
