Solar Power in Africa

Africa is becoming a highly sought after market for solar power deployment attracting massive investments. Increasing energy demand, a focus on improving energy access, the energy transition goals of nations, and the reducing costs of solar equipment is leading to a rapid uptake of solar power projects across different segments. Against this backdrop, this conference aims to discuss the growth trends in the continent’s solar power space, examine the barriers to solar power deployment, and explore the policy, regulatory, technology and financing scenario in Africa’s solar sector.

​The two-day virtual event will have the following sessions, covering the relevant topics for all stakeholders:
Solar Power Growth and Outlook
Country-wise Plans and Policies
Focus on Technology Advancements
Creating an Enabling Financing Environment
Expanding the Utility-Scale Solar Market
C&I Solar Gains Traction
Potential of Microgrids and Minigrids
Addressing Grid Concerns
Effective O&M of Solar Projects
New Frontiers of Growth
Project Showcase and Lessons Learnt

The event will bring together solar project developers, EPC players, government departments, regulators, investors, consultants, industry associations, equipment suppliers and solution providers that are shaping the future of Africa’s solar power market.
