African Energy Week (AEW) 2024 to Connect Companies with African Projects with Latest Speaker Lineup

Africa’s energy industry is on a positive growth trajectory as hydrocarbon discoveries open up new plays, the energy transition drives investment in low-carbon and renewable energy and escalating demand in both global and African markets attracts fresh investment in infrastructure and distribution. Regulatory reform continues to entice investment continent-wide while national development goals create new opportunities for project development and high returns.

The African Energy Week (AEW): Invest in African Energy conference will connect energy, technology and service companies with African energy projects, providing a platform for deals to be signed and partnerships forged. As the largest event of its kind in Africa, the event takes place under a mandate to make energy poverty history by 2030 and drives a new wave of investment across the entire African energy sector and its value chain.
