SUMMARY:07th SOLAR AFRICA 2023 – Tanzania
DESCRIPTION:The overwhelming response from the Solar Industry has encouraged Expogroup to launch Solar Africa Exhibition\, to be held concurrently with P&E Africa. \nThe region offers tremendous opportunities to suppliers worldwide\, having among the strongest solar resources in the world. In particular\, the region offers excellent potential for concentrated solar power (CSP) and concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) systems. \nMany African countries are currently exploring the use of solar and other renewables\, using tenders (or PPAs) as the vehicle for expansion. As incentives in Europe decrease\, project developers and investors are keenly interested in deploying solar technologies in Africa. Vast rural areas produce high demand for solar electrification. \nPower grids in rural Africa currently tend to be powered by diesel generator sets often running 24 hours each day. While relatively cheap to buy\, speedy to install and simple to use\, these diesel generator sets burn a lot of fuel\, push out CO2 and require a lot of refueling and maintenance. Rising diesel prices and environmental concerns are therefore driving grid operators to reconsider their offering and reduce emissions.

SUMMARY:04th SOLAR AFRICA 2023 - Ethiopia
DESCRIPTION:Solar Africa – Solar Exhibition In Ethiopia \nThe overwhelming response from the Solar Industry has encouraged Expogroup to launch “SOLAR AFRICA” and after successful editions in Kenya and Tanzania Solar Africa is all set to step in the Ethiopian Market. \nSolar Africa in Ethiopia will be held concurrently with Power &Energy Africa from 19 – 21 January 2023 . \nThe region offers tremendous opportunities to suppliers worldwide\, having among the strongest solar resources in the world. In particular\, the region offers excellent potential for concentrated solar power (CSP) and concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) systems. \nSolar photovoltaics are being promoted to replace fuel-based lighting and off-grid electrical needs. Ethiopia is thought to have about 5 MW of off-grid solar. Almost all current solar power is used for telecommunications. Other uses include village well pumps\, health care and school lighting. A current government initiative plans to bring solar power to 150\,000 households. The first phase included 1 MW of panels. The first large installation of solar was a village grid of 10 kW in 1985\, expanded to 30 kW in 1989. A solar panel assembly plant opened in Addis Ababa in early 2013 capable of making 20 MW of panel per year. \nMany African countries are currently exploring the use of solar and other renewable energy\, with Ethiopia being a strong market for Solar industry and is currently focusing on developing the same. The Government is also being very supportive by allowing solar products to enter the country duty free. Learn more Here \nCome\, be a part of progress in Africa!\nRegistration link

SUMMARY:Renpower Africa Storage
DESCRIPTION:RENPOWER Africa Storage will highlight the evolution and ambitions taken to scale-up energy storage projects in the African continent. The conversations will involve the public and private sector stakeholders. \nAs the African continent transitions towards a zero-emission electricity sector by including more renewable sources in the energy mix\, it will naturally require large scale energy storage in abundance which can be used to maintain a constant supply and demand of electricity\, smoothing intermittency of renewables\, and enhance energy security\, amongst other benefits. \nThe need for energy storage systems (ESS) is also key to continue integrating renewables onto the grid\, many countries in West Africa are looking into launching calls for tender for the development of large-scale solar parks with storage capacity in Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast to smooth the flow of solar energy and use the saved power during evening peak hours. In Sub-Sahara Africa\, Malawi’s first utility-scale grid-connected 20MW Solar PV and Battery Energy Storage Project has entered commercial operations. \nThrough South Africa’s REIPPPP model\, Eskom has recently awarded contracts to two successful bidders for the provision of battery storage solutions in terms of its Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project. The 1\,440MWh distributed BESS combined with 60MW Solar PV represents a giant leap forward for large-scale deployment in support of South Africa’s renewable energy strategy and addresses local overall system challenges. This is the first part of the 500MW BESS initiative announced by the government. \nThe conference will also address topics such as the use of energy storage systems (ESS) in C&I and mining sites; as well as exploring green hydrogen as a long-term energy storage solution and how the continent is reacting to unlock the multiple benefits. \nAudience: The event will gather under one roof key stakeholders including Renewable power developers\, EPC contractors\, Engineering\, Battery storage technology providers\, Equipment manufacturers\, Mining companies\, Legal and advisory services\, Banking and private equity entities\, Representatives from the government\, International Finance Institutions (IFIs)\, Sectorial/regional agencies and associations. \nAgenda and registration – The detailed agenda\, speaker line-up and registration form will be available upon your written inquiry. Make sure to register early to benefit from the early bird conditions. \nFor more information\, please contact:\nJose Romero\nEvent Manager\njromero@euroconventionglobal.com\n+1 407 227 3831 \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Africa Renewables Investment Summit (ARIS)
DESCRIPTION:ARIS seeks to accelerate renewable energy investment in African countries by linking institutional investors\, project developers\, policy makers\, energy utilities\, regulators\, corporates and the most influential energy sector decision makers under one roof. Project “Energise Africa” is Africa’s most ambitious to date. Key experts will gather at ARIS to dissect solutions to rapidly energise Africa. As well as facilitating investment of Renewable Energy projects right at the event! \nConference Schedule\n\nThe investment case for African renewables – why investors should look at Africa now\nWhy Africa? Africa has the world’s largest potential for renewable energy but only receives less than 2% of global renewable energy investment. So much underexploited opportunity\, and a greater need for energy\, with 600 million Africans having no access to electricity. Many African countries have made tremendous legislative movements to attract investment\, the ball is now investors’ court. This session will spell out the trends and intricacies of developing projects in Africa\, and why investors should starting investing now. Attendees will discover how to invest in African renewable energy projects\, and find out how they can attract investment for their projects in Africa. \n\n\nReimagining project finance for African RE projects – African oriented solution\nTraditional financing methods for renewable energy projects don’t always work for African conditions. This session will explore what innovative finance options lenders and investors can utilise in financing African RE projects to accelerate Africa’s energy transition. How to navigate currency volatility challenges and hedge against foreign exchange risks. Why local currency financing is changing the game. What risk mitigation alternatives to sovereign guarantees to explore. Insights into cryptos\, green bonds\, crowdfunding\, grants\, blended finance\, concessional funding etc. \n\nSouth Africa – what does it take to deliver 7GW of RE in the 3 years?\nSouth Africa is on massive procurement drive for renewables\, with ministerial determinations for procuring 4 800 MW of wind\, 2 000 MW of solar PV and 513 MW of battery energy storage capacity within 3 years approved. This session will delineate how developers can successfully bid in Africa’s largest renewable energy market\, opportunities for investors and what needs to be done to successfully implement this tremendous procurement drive. \n  \n  \nRegister here
