SUMMARY:Energy Storage: Enabling large-scale dispatchable renewable energy on South Africa’s grid
DESCRIPTION:The South African energy landscape is faced with the unique challenge and opportunity to become more energy secure by using renewable sources for future generation. The nation and country have long been disturbed by frequent blackouts\, outdated electricity infrastructure with supply constraints\, and an urgent need for additional capacity to prevent load shedding. \nThe country has prioritised a fast-track basis for large-scale dispatchable energy capacity to bridge the gap between demand and supply. \nFor the first time on such a scale\, hybrid plants\, including renewables\, storage\, and thermal power\, have been offered and have resulted competitive to provide dispatchable power and are currently navigating to reach financial close no later than end-July 2021. \nBesides the co-location of RE and energy storage\, South Africa is also considering stand-alone solutions\, currently under the Eskom program\, to provide direct balance services and attenuate the impact of renewable energy generation on the grid. \nThis webinar will discuss how smart energy storage solutions can drive South Africa’s electricity grid to a 100% renewable future: \n\nOverview of the competitive and regulatory South African energy environment to understand the use-case(s) for co-located flexible storage projects.\nUnderstand the challenges that renewable integration presents\, and how energy storage technology can support the secure scale-up and integration of multiple generation assets under a single portfolio\, with a look at AI and real-time data analytics.\nLearn about current renewables-plus-storage projects—islanded and grid-forming/connected—for stable grid balancing and performance optimisation.\n\nRegister here

SUMMARY:Lessons learned from mining mini grids to national grids
DESCRIPTION:Wind + solar with a slice of energy storage = reliable\, dispatchable power that up to now has always been the preserve of fossil fuel generation.  One site\, one interconnection\, many MW of clean\, grid-friendly energy. That is the promise of the hybrid RE system. The new frontier to decarbonisation of the global energy system. \nThe idea looks great on paper but in reality\, the hybrid grid is a mix of interconnected complexities relating to cost\, technology and market drivers. No two hybrid systems are alike. Market drivers – grid constraints\, grid stability or fast-response ancillary services – differ from country to country. \nThe experience of mines in Africa that are building hybrid minigrids for their own use though could point the way towards decarbonisation of energy systems. The need for reliable own generation has become the mother of invention when it comes to bringing renewable energy into a minigrid at a mine. \nWhat then are the lessons mines are learning about creating their own renewable energy system and how can these be scaled up by national grids? \nDiscussion points \n\nHave developers reached a tipping point where they have enough capacity and capability to work on multiple technologies inhouse?\nHave the complexities of interconnection technology and design reached a point where systems can be built on a large scale?\nWorking up a financial and technical model attractive to mine\, investor and developer that limits risk while sharing rewards and can thus be scaled up?\n\nRegister here \n

SUMMARY:RENPOWER SENEGAL & IVORY COAST 2021: Future Energy\, Sustainable Power & Cleantech in West Africa
DESCRIPTION:The RENPOWER SENEGAL & IVORY COAST – investors 2021 has been designed to facilitate the dialogue among a wide cross-section of energy sector stakeholders – local and regional policymakers\, private sector representatives and international experts – gathered to move forward with the resolution of adopting renewable energy to address key challenges such as energy security\, energy sustainability and a resilient power infrastructure. \nSenegal’s and Ivory Coast’s energy policies are focused on the expansion of generation capacity. The need to fulfill rising demand is driving diversification of the energy mix\, which is evidenced by their respective target of generating a significant part of their electricity needs from renewables in the next decade. \nIvory Coast has made rapid progress in electrification. The share of renewable energies in the production mix is expected to rise to 42% and the grid to cover 99% of the population by 2035. Ivory Coast’s installed generation capacity of 2200 MW remains the third largest in West Africa after Nigeria and Ghana. The early development of its electricity generation infrastructure has allowed the country to become an electricity exporter to its neighbors. The decision to privatize a portion of its electricity sector has paved the way for one of Africa’s most robust energy systems that continues to expand and innovate with clean energy solutions. \nUnder its Gas to Power Strategy\, Senegal is giving a prominent place to natural gas and to power industries in its energy mix. It is also giving a strong signal for a truly diversified and sustainable energy transition in the years to come\, with clear legislation and roadmaps developed for all major sources of clean energy such as renewables and natural gas. The Senegalese government is targeting to reach universal access to electricity by 2025. This is expected to be achieved by expanding the existing power grid and adding around 180 MW of off-grid generation capacity. Around 88% of the interested remote villages will be electrified through the grid expansion. \nJOIN US TO DISCUSS\n\nGrowth trajectory towards transition to cleaner energy – From ambition to core actions Senegal’s and Ivory Coast’s potential in commercial and industrial solar\nElectrification process – Opening up new markets for clean energy production and distribution\nRoadmap for universal electrification – Decentralized power\, off-grid and smart energy solutions\nFinancing energy transition and transformational progress of the electricity sector in Senegal and Ivory Coast\n\n  \nAll these questions\, challenges and further prospects will be discussed in-depth during presentations and moderated panel discussions. Furthermore\, there will be live Q&A and direct networking available for all the attendees being linked to the conference platform. \n  \nRegister here

SUMMARY:WAPECC21
DESCRIPTION:Under the high patronage of H.E Minister of the Federal Ministry of Power of Nigeria and with the support of the Economic Community of West African States\, Konect Group are proud to present the second edition of the  West African Power and Energy Cooperation Conference (WAPECC 21) which will take place virtually from 3rd – 4th  June 2021. \nDigital WAPECC Abuja will provide an intimate platform to network and socialise\, and will bring together the region’s top decision makers\, international investors\, leading technology providers\, power developers\, donor bodies\, development partners\, management consultancy firms\, and other professionals from around the globe and from across West Africa. \nThis biannual regional dialogue on energy provides authoritative analysis\, data\, policy recommendations and real solutions to help ECOWAS countries provide secure\, affordable and sustainable energy for all. It will be a meeting place for the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and regional bodies to tackle their most pressing issues: Access to clean\, affordable\, reliable\, and modern energy services for the region and importantly\, work on the dynamics and Fundamentals of Energy development for sustainability and to effectively lead the clean energy revolution in the wake of this global pandemic. \nFor the member countries of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS)\, namely: Benin\, Burkina Faso\, Cape Verde\, Côte d’Ivoire\, Gambia\, Ghana\, Guinea\, Guinea-Bissau\, Liberia\, Mali\, Niger\, Nigeria\, Senegal\, Sierra Leone and Togo\, WAPECC also means a platform to develop regional cooperation\, interconnectivity and somewhere to decide on shared actions to drive growth. \nThe common objective of eradicating energy poverty and achieving the 2030 objectives has never been more urgent. \nRegional development partners and related institutions have rolled out their own plans for sustainable development and for eradicating energy poverty in the region. \nThe region’s power and energy sector is presented with several difficult challenges as it emerges from the most severe global pandemic we have ever faced. \nHowever\, despite the predictions of global economic contraction due to the impact of the Covid19\, Africa remains a continent of opportunity: The pandemic has caused a shift in the consumption of electricity away from the established grid\, towards the off grid and has necessitated the development of such. Ambitious efforts have continued at both the national and regional level to develop and harmonise policy targets and frameworks. \nMaking the most of the region’s vast renewable potential is imperative to enhancing energy access and to meet the ever-growing demand. With the population growing exponentially\, (according to the International Energy Agency) in the next 20 years\, one in three who are born will be African\, which will make Africa one of the world’s youngest and most dynamic populations and the demand for electricity will grow alongside this. \nWith the right investment and global cooperation\, Africa in general and West Africa in particular will have an opportunity to take the lead in the green energy revolution. \nDigital WAPECC Abuja21 is the must-attend two-day online event for West Africa’s power and energy sector stakeholders to engage and come out with the best strategies and solutions. \nOur programme features some of the most sought-after international and West African speakers and hottest strategic topics. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Reducing the cost of capital for solar projects in Africa
DESCRIPTION:African countries are in a unique position to reap the socio-economic and environmental benefits of renewable energy resources to meet their increasing energy demand in a sustainable way. However\, the difficulty of attracting sufficient and affordable finance is an obstacle to building more solar projects in Africa. The financing costs of a solar project are a function of the capital needs from investors and the returns demanded by these investors\, and usually consist of a mix of debt and equity. The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is a measure to express the average financing cost of a project. Studies show that the WACC in African countries can be several times higher than in European countries. Therefore\, counter-intuitively\, solar electricity might be cheaper in a low-sun and low-risk country in Europe than in an African country with a higher level of solar irradiation. De-risking policies and financing mechanisms can reduce the perceived or actual investment risks and barriers and bring the cost of capital down\, ultimately leading to a boost in the construction of new solar projects. The webinar\, organised by SolarPower Europe and supported by GET.invest – a European programme supported by the European Union\, Germany\, Sweden\, the Netherlands\, and Austria – will gather African and European experts to shed light on how to reduce the levels of cost of capital for solar projects in Africa. \n\n\n\nRegister here
