Nigeria Energy Returns to Power West Africa’s Clean Energy Transition

…Aims to enable sustainable, affordable, and reliable energy access

 West Africa’s biggest energy event, the Nigeria Energy Exhibition and Conference, is set to gather key stakeholders from across the energy sector as it returns to drive the region’s clean energy transition. The 11th edition, showcasing some of the most innovative companies in power generation, transmission, distribution, renewable energy, and energy management, will take place from October 15 to 17, 2024, in Lagos.

Held under the patronage of the Federal Ministry of Power and organized by Informa Markets, a leading global exhibitions organizer, the 2024 Nigeria Energy Exhibition and Conference is themed ‘Breaking barriers in the new energy era: Clean, Reliable and Sustainable. The event, consistent with its focus on addressing the critical challenge of energy access, will feature two impactful conferences including a high-level Leadership Summit (paid feature) and a Technical Seminar.

Hosting key industry experts, investors, and local players, the Nigeria Energy Leadership Summit will play a crucial role within the West African power market gathering the most relevant stakeholders in the sector to deliberate on viable pathways to achieving West Africa’s energy transition ambition. The Technical Seminar will focus on bringing leading-edge innovations and technologies to the generating, transmission, and distribution sector. This event is a dedicated knowledge hub for energy innovators to learn and share industry best practices and scientific developments.

Ade Yesufu, Exhibition Director – Energy portfolio – MEA, Informa Markets, said “Nigeria and West Africa are at a pivotal moment in their energy journey, where the focus is not only on increasing access but also on transitioning to cleaner, more sustainable power solutions. Even with vast natural resources, the region has struggled to attract investment opportunities which is critical to reducing energy poverty. The Nigeria Energy Exhibition and Conference has consistently brought together key players to drive collaboration and innovation. This year, we are placing a strong focus on powering energy transition in West Africa which underscores our commitment to advancing practical solutions that address the region’s energy challenges while supporting its green energy future.”

For the 2024 edition, Nigeria Energy launched the Energy-X Contest as a premier endeavor aimed at nurturing and empowering exceptional students and young Africans in the realm of innovation especially in the energy industry. As a part of this initiative, a specialized incubation program was curated with the mission to create a dynamic ecosystem where young entrepreneurs are equipped with the skills, network, and support to build successful ventures that positively impact society.

The Nigeria Energy Exhibition and Conference will showcase the entire energy value chain, from cutting-edge generation and transmission advancements to groundbreaking solutions in renewables and energy efficiency. More than 6,500 local and international energy stakeholders from across the power value chain are expected to attend, with over 150 exhibitors offering a unique opportunity for attendees to network, trade, and discover new opportunities.

The conference would discuss key topics including:

  • Sustainable Power Generation: Balancing Profitability and Environmental Impact
  • Investing in Tomorrow: Navigating the $360 Billion Energy Transition
  • Blueprints for the Future: Gazetting Nigeria’s Energy Vision
  • Financing, Policy, and Innovation: The key ingredients for catalysing Nigeria’s conventional utility-scale projects ecosystem
