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: 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: 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.

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.

Description:  South Africa’s electricity sector is on the brink of its most significant structural reform. With the Electricity Regulation Amendment Act now in force and the unbundling of the transmission function well underway, the country is preparing to move from a single-buyer system to a market-based wholesale electricity market.

This webinar, “Countdown to the South African Electricity Wholesale Market,” provides a timely and practical overview of what this transition means, how the new market will work and how plans are progressing against proposed milestones.

Description: Climate change poses escalating risks to power systems worldwide, threatening critical infrastructure and the secure, continuous supply of electricity. Both extreme weather events and long-term stressors such as rising temperatures demand proactive action to address vulnerabilities in power infrastructure. Integrating climate resilience into the planning, design, and operation of power assets is essential to ensure stable and sustainable power systems for the future – especially as electrification increases across all sectors.

IRENA’s report Enhancing Resilience: Climate-proofing Power Infrastructure underscores the urgent need to strengthen power system resilience to climate impacts and extreme weather. Drawing on global case studies, it provides guidance for policymakers, regulators, and utilities to embed climate considerations into power system planning, investment, and broader energy transition strategies.
