Date: 26 - 29 May 2026

Location: Online

Description: The e-Conference on Storage Solutions is an annual virtual event focusing on advancements and opportunities in solar energy storage across Africa.

The Africa battery storage market has seen remarkable growth in recent years, with annual increases of 3, 10, and 11-fold. In 2025, this expansion continued, driven by falling costs and growing deployment of PV+BESS solutions, making solar increasingly dispatchable and competitive for commercial, industrial, and utility-scale applications. Based on data collected by AFSIA, more than 31.8 GWh of projects are officially under development, and the World Bank estimates that South Africa alone could reach 10-15 GWh of installed BESS by 2030.
