Held with endorsement of the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Power, the 11th edition of the Nigeria Energy Exhibition and Conference is set to return to the Landmark Center in Lagos, Nigeria, from October 15th to 17th, 2024, to address the critical challenges in West Africa’s energy sector. Nigeria Energy serves as West Africa’s premier platform, bringing together contractors, developers, investors, project owners, and utilities to collaborate and create reliable energy solutions that address the region’s growing energy demands.

Organised by Informa Markets, the event will bring together over 6,500 participants, including industry leaders, investors, policymakers, and innovators to discuss the region’s most critical energy challenges and opportunities. With the theme ‘Breaking Barriers in the New Energy Era: Clean, Reliable, and Sustainable,’ the conference aims to promote West Africa’s clean energy transition while focusing on sustainable power generation, innovation, investment, and energy access.

Speaking at a press conference, Ade Yesufu, Exhibition Manager, Energy Portfolio – MEA, Informa Markets, stated: “The theme of ‘Breaking Barriers in the New Energy Era’ aims to address the key obstacles hindering the clean energy transition in West Africa by focusing on two primary areas: policy and investment. The event will highlight the need for supportive government policies that incentivize renewable energy development and conventional power systems and address the critical challenge of attracting sufficient investment to fund large-scale clean energy projects.

“The Nigeria Energy Leadership Summit is a platform for dialogue, knowledge sharing, and collaboration among key stakeholders. By fostering open discussions, we aim to create a conducive environment for policy development, investment attraction, and technology adoption in the renewable energy sector and address the critical challenges of limited infrastructure capacity and inefficient quality to position Nigeria and West Africa as leaders in the transition to clean and sustainable energy sources,” he concluded.
