Creating a New Future of Energy in Southern Africa

Overview

Power systems in Africa and across the globe are becoming vastly more complex as demand for electricity grows and decarbonisation efforts ramp up, creating new challenges and business opportunities. Join us for an insightful event as we embark on a journey to discuss the future of distributed energy, with a focus on South Africa.

About the event

Experts will give us an overview of the energy landscape, after which a panel session will bring together experts from startups, academia and established companies to discuss cutting-edge technologies, business models and finance mechanisms that can accelerate the deployment and adoption of distributed energy solutions. The panellists will share real-world examples, lessons learned, and explore the potential of cross-sector collaborations in driving the transition towards a resilient energy future, while touching on areas such as energy storage, virtual power plants, energy wheeling, demand management and EV integration into the grid.

Don’t miss the opportunity to expand your knowledge, network with industry professionals, and be part of the conversation shaping the future of distributed energy in Africa! We look forward to seeing you at the event.
