SUMMARY:Webinar: How Tracking technology is adapting to Ultra-high-power modules in Middle East and Africa
DESCRIPTION:The PV market is experiencing significant changes due to the constant need to lower the LCOE to replace fossil fuels. The transition to large-area wafers means larger module dimensions as well as weight will have to be considered when selecting the components for your PV plant. Integrating larger modules with very high output requires greater focus on system integration to further lower the balance-of-system (BOS) costs and reduce LCOE. \nIn this webinar we will thoroughly analyze how tracker manufacturers are adapting to the weight and dimensions of the new ultra-high power modules to achieve the lowest LCOE on your solar projects.  \n\nHear from manufacturers how tracker design is adapting to integrate more modules per tracker (up to 120 per tracker as compared to around 90) and in so\, helping to reduce BOS costs.\nUnderstand the impact of high or sustained winds on single-axe trackers with large modules and compare the benefits of different tracker configurations to mitigate the risks when designing your PV project.\n\nRegister here

SUMMARY:webinar - Women Entrepreneurs as Key Drivers in the DRE Sector: Best Practices & Innovative Business Models
DESCRIPTION:Energy and gender equality are key drivers for development and economic growth. The economic empowerment of women is one of the four pillars of the EU Gender Action Plan\, explicitly stated as a Sustainable Development Goal (SDG-5) and intrinsically linked to most of the other SDGs. \nWomen empowerment and entrepreneurship are important sources of growth\, prosperity and poverty reduction with positive impacts on families and children\, health and nutrition\, communities and the national economy at large. \nAt the intersection of gender equality\, clean energy access and sustainable economic development\, it is fundamental that women are supported and encouraged to engage in all stages of the decentralised renewable energy (DRE) space: at customer\, company and investor levels and that the contributions of women to the energy access sector are recognised. As such\, the socio-economic empowerment of women should be strongly encouraged and facilitated to foster gender balance in the sector and unlock its benefits for the long-term sustainable development of rural communities in developing countries. \nThis webinar aims to share best practices from innovative entrepreneurs embedding gender in their business models\, as well as to spur discussion on best practices to promote gender equality in the DRE sector. \nThe webinar is organised by ARE and supported by GET.invest\, a European programme which mobilises investments in decentralised renewable energy\, supported by the European Union\, Germany\, Sweden\, the Netherlands\, and Austria. \nThe webinar will feature: \n\nHigh-level opening remarks\nPresentations from entrepreneurs embedding gender equality and women empowerment in their business models\nPanel discussion and sharing of lessons learnt to promote gender equality in the DRE sector from past and ongoing programmes\nQ&A with the audience\n\nRegister here

SUMMARY:Webinar - How do off-grid appliances enhance climate resilience?
DESCRIPTION:Affordable\, high-performing appliances can facilitate clean energy access for households in resource-constrained settings\, enhance their resilience to the growing threat of climate change and their ability to respond to unexpected disruptions such as Covid-19. Solar water pumps present a clean energy solution for irrigation during droughts\, which are expected to increase in frequency & severity. Cold chain solutions can extend the quality and shelf life of fresh fruit and vegetables\, helping smallholder farmers to increase the value of their produce. Clean cookstoves displace the use of traditional\, biomass fuels\, which can reduce carbon emissions and ambient air pollution. \nWhile these appliances help foster economic productivity and combat climate change\, the off-grid appliance sector must also be mindful of its carbon footprint. For instance\, the lack of service providers in many developing countries prevents effective recycling of off-grid solar products. High global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants are also released into the atmosphere when fridges are disposed of inappropriately. \nEfficiency for Access will explore these crucial issues through a live conversation with energy access industry leaders on Thursday 17 September. We will also examine what the energy access sector can do to improve its carbon footprint. Chaired by Jeffrey Prins\, Head – Renewable Energy Portfolio\, IKEA Foundation\, the event will comprise a moderated discussion with a panel of experts followed by a Q&A. \n  \nSpeakers \n–             Dan Hamza-Goodacre\, Non-Executive Director\, KCEP\, Climate Works \n–             Dr Joni Cook\, Research Administrator\, Modern Energy Cooking Services Programme \n  \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Infrastructure Africa
DESCRIPTION:The 2 day Infrastructure Africa Business Forum will bring together business to explore new trading opportunities\, establish new business networks\, develop and form partnerships and plan a way forward to address some of the continent’s requirements. The 7th annual Infrastructure Africa Business Forum will present stakeholders with an opportunity to unpack the enormous growth potential in addressing Africa’s infrastructure needs. Africa\, with a population exceeding 1 billion people is well placed as an emerging market\, keen for investment and growth. \nThe story of Africa’s development is improving. Six of the world’s fastest growing economies are in Africa! Democratic governance has been strengthened over the past five decades\, enabling a platform for stable growth and prosperity in most parts of the continent. However\, to build the infrastructure the continent needs to support growth and meet development goals; Africa will have to spend about $93 billion a year for a decade. Two-thirds of that sum would be for investments; the remaining third for maintenance. Africa already spends $45 billion a year on infrastructure\, two-thirds of which is domestically financed from taxes and user charges. Most financing for capital investment is obtained from external sources according to the African Development Bank Group. \nmore info here

SUMMARY:Online conference: Renpower Africa Renewables & Mining
DESCRIPTION:As the world transitions into a Green Recovery\, we invite you to join us at RENPOWER Africa: Mining and Renewables – Online Conference. This exclusive virtual event will give you insights to the mining industry’s commitment in Africa to a greener environment as well as networking opportunities to engage with key stakeholders of the mining and renewable sectors. \nScalability of renewables in mining – the idea of integrating renewable energy generation – solar\, wind\, biomass\, thermal\, hydro – in mining operations has become more evident as the costs of these technologies continue to decrease countering the climb of demand for cleaner solutions to reduce carbon emissions in this sector. The African continent is not the exception as mining activities are high across the continent. \nPowering mines with renewable energy sources represent economic and environmental benefits which cannot be overseen by investors and governments. Mining activities consume about 6.2% of the total global energy and 48% of energy in South Africa\, alone. Reliable and cost-effective energy continues to be a challenge for the mining sector to thrive as load shedding and unavailable power infrastructure are some of the hurdles that prevent productivity. \nAs a response\, Independent Power Producers (IPPs) are offering solutions with greater flexibility responding to the fast-evolving market. More than a dozen projects were announced or commissioned in the last year where mining companies integrate renewable energy to power their activities\, putting approximately 1\,500 MW for power self-generation in the pipelines. \nHowever\, one of the questions of actuality remains as the global economy recovers from the Covid-19 pandemic and how this crisis will catalyze changes in the mining sector seeking new opportunities to improve operations and increase productivity. \nThe opportunity is on the rise for renewable energy technologies and off-grid solutions to tap into the mining African market. \nNot just a webinar – a full event experience!\nWhy attend:\n• Two days of online sessions\, for 6.5+ hours;\n• 25+ expert speakers to learn about opportunities for renewable energy technologies and off-grid solutions in the African mining market;\n• Participate to the live Q&A and also access the on-demand recording of the event to view the presentations and panel discussions later on;\n• Access our platforms to network with attendees for up to 5 weeks after the event (create your profile\, schedule meetings\, messaging and more);\n• Connect from anywhere in the world & share business opportunities! \n\nWho will participate: This live stream event will bring together representatives from renewable power developers\, EPC contractors\, engineering companies\, manufacturers and other industries\, mining and transport companies\, legal and advisory services\, banking and private equity entities as well as from governments\, policy makers and international finance institutions (IFIs). \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Gauging the Corporate Power Purchase Agreement market
DESCRIPTION:The Corporate Power Purchase Agreement (CPPA) market is set to realise exponential growth as global corporations are now looking more at this market for renewable energy procurement solutions to fulfil their decarbonisation objectives. \nCorporations bought a record amount of clean energy through PPAs in 2019\, up more than 40% from the previous year’s record. \nAccording to the Bloomberg New Energy Finance’s 1H 2020 Corporate Energy Market Outlook\, some 19.5GW of clean energy contracts were signed by more than 100 corporations in 23 different countries in 2019. This was up from 13.6GW in 2018\, and more than triple the activity seen in 2017. \nThe high profile RE100 campaign\, a global corporate leadership initiative bringing together influential businesses committed to sourcing 100% renewable electricity\, has seen some of the world’s largest companies commit to this goal. \nThe RE100 totaled 221 members through 2019\, collectively consuming 233TWh of electricity in 2018\, based on their latest filings – slightly less than South Africa’s entire power generation fleet. \nBloomberg New Energy Finance estimates these 221 RE100 companies will need to purchase an additional 210TWh of clean electricity in 2030 to meet their targets. \nAs onsite power becomes the new norm\, CPPAs will likely continue to be the preferred choice in enabling corporates’ meet their decarbonisation goals while ensuring stable power supply and low energy costs. \nThis live discussion will provide information on the benefits and risks involved with regards to the evolving nature of CPPAs. \n  \nRead more and register
