Cape Town, South Africa – 17 February 2026: With just two weeks remaining until the Africa Energy Indaba, momentum is rapidly building for what promises to be one of the most influential energy gatherings on the continent.
The upcoming edition will convene:
- Fifteen African Energy Ministers
- The African Union Commissioner
- Representatives from Africa’s Power Pools
- Continental utilities
- Leading investors, regulators and infrastructure developers
All under one roof.
The Africa Energy Indaba continues to serve as a strategic platform where policy direction is shaped, procurement priorities are discussed, and energy partnerships are forged to accelerate Africa’s power sector transformation.
Key Programme Highlights Include:
- Mission 300 Day hosted by the World Bank, AfDB, GEAPP, SEforALL and the Rockefeller Foundation
- Indaba Energy Leaders Dialogue hosted by Pele Green Energy
- Ministerial Roundtable hosted by AUDA-NEPAD and GET.invest
- Power Pools Forum
- Deep Dive Energy Forums
- A dynamic Exhibition Showcase featuring leading energy technologies and solution providers
- The South African Energy Investment Forum, hosted by the Department of Electricity and Energy
“The Africa Energy Indaba provides a critical platform for alignment between governments, utilities, investors and solution providers. With ministerial participation at this level, meaningful dialogue can translate into tangible action,” said Liz Hart, Managing Director of the Africa Energy Indaba.
Africa’s energy gap remains one of the defining development challenges of the decade. To meet power demand, expand capacity and achieve universal electricity access by 2030, the continent will require a dramatic scale-up in both infrastructure and investment. Studies estimate Africa needs around US $450–$500 billion in power sector investment between now and 2030 — roughly US $60–$65 billion per year — to expand generation, transmission and access capacity across the continent.
Current infrastructure shortfalls mean hundreds of millions still lack reliable electricity, and financing gaps, especially in clean energy, must be closed if Africa is to unlock economic growth, industrialisation and energy security. As Africa accelerates grid expansion, renewable integration and infrastructure investment, the Indaba offers an unparalleled opportunity to engage directly with decision-makers shaping the continent’s energy future.

How do you get into magazines? How can you get on TV or in your local newspaper? What can you do so others will take notice of your art? When I was first trying to get noticed, all of these questions went through my mind. After a lot of trial of error and a lot of reading, I began to understand the world of Public Relations. – Mark Edward
