Organizer: ESI Africa

Description: Zambia’s power sector is undergoing a structural shift driven by hydrological volatility, tariff reforms, and increasing demand for reliable, cost-effective electricity among commercial and industrial (C&I) consumers. This has accelerated interest in distributed renewable energy solutions, particularly solar PV paired with battery energy storage systems.

Recent regulatory adjustments and private sector participation are opening pathways for embedded generation, wheeling frameworks, and corporate PPAs, positioning Zambia as a compelling frontier market for C&I energy investments.

Organizer: ESI Africa

Description: Following ARE’s recent rebranding to the Alliance for Renewable Electrification, Commercial & Industrial (C&I) electrification has become a key pillar of the organisation’s expanded mandate. As businesses and industries seek cleaner, more reliable, and cost-effective energy solutions, C&I electrification is emerging as a key driver of sustainable economic growth in emerging and developing markets.

The upcoming Innovation for Electrification (I4E) webinar will explore how decentralised renewable energy (DRE) solutions are helping C&I users replace fossil fuel-based energy with clean electricity to power operations, improve resilience, and reduce costs and emissions.

Join us as we dive into practical applications, business models, and technologies enabling reliable, affordable, low-emission energy access across sectors including digital infrastructure, industrial production and processing, urban commerce, agri-processing, transport, logistics, and other energy-intensive industries.

The webinar will feature expert insights from ARE Members, followed by a live Q&A with participants.

Description: Clean cooking is receiving growing attention globally, with financing and investment recognised as pivotal to reversing the slow progress and achieving SDG 7. However, investment data on the sector remain scarce, and existing datasets often lack the project-level detail that governments and investors need for informed decisions. As a result, capital is sometimes directed toward enterprises unable or unwilling to absorb it, or delivered using instruments that do not match companies’ needs, hindering effective disbursement of already limited funds. Without targeted efforts to generate and share robust data, initiatives directed towards garnering support and investments towards clean cooking are likely to face reduced success.

Description: Utilities across emerging and established markets have invested heavily in smart metering and AMI programmes to modernise operations, improve visibility, and strengthen revenue assurance.

Yet many leadership teams still face a critical question: Are we realising the full financial and operational return on that investment?

In practice, many utilities continue to experience non-technical losses, underperforming metering assets, fragmented field execution, and limited visibility into whether corrective actions are delivering measurable outcomes.

Description: Realizing a solar project of any size is a major undertaking requiring a wide variety of expertise. A “relay race” approach, passing a project between different teams, can result in hidden costs and missed opportunities – even where each team has the made the best decision it could. In this pv magazine Webinar, we see how an eye on the bigger picture can ensure that an optimization in one department doesn’t create a catastrophe in another.

Organizer: ESI Africa

Description: This webinar explores the shift from data export to data ownership, positioning data centres not simply as technology assets, but as foundational infrastructure for economic competitiveness, national security and industrial growth. As hyperscalers expand into African markets and governments push for localisation, the conversation is moving from policy ambition to physical deployment.

However, scaling digital infrastructure is not just a demand story, it is a systems challenge. Power availability, connectivity, regulatory alignment and investment readiness will ultimately determine where and how capacity is built. At the same time, utilisation gaps and uneven market maturity raise critical questions around timing, demand conversion and long-term sustainability.

This session brings together perspectives across investment, infrastructure and technology to examine what it will take to build domestic compute capacity at scale. It sets the foundation for the in-person Data Centre Summit at Enlit Africa, advancing the conversation from strategic framing to implementation.
