This event will bring together West Africa’s top elected officials, policymakers, industry thought leaders and other individuals committed to moving forward the sustainable energy agenda. The region has made tremendous strides in putting in place the policy and regulatory framework for a viable sustainable energy market. Translating this enabling environment into concrete projects powering inclusive energy access and growth is one of the key objectives of ESEF2019. ESEF2019 will raise awareness about the progress made in the region and highlight the challenges faced by the private sector in developing projects. Facilitation of business deals and promotion of investment are also prioritized. ESEF2019 will be a demand-driven and result-oriented event, where participants take a detailed look at the challenges facing the sector; how they are being overcome and where the opportunities lie for speeding up the implementation of game-changing projects. The forum will be divided into different sessions supported by thematic areas to cater for all expected stakeholders.
