Organizer: ARE

Description: Renewable energy technologies have grown rapidly in the past years, triggered by technological innovations, conducive policy support and favourable cost reductions, especially for solar photovoltaics and wind power. Other novel and cutting-edge renewable energy technologies, such as micro-hydro, bioenergy, airborne wind, and green hydrogen, are equally becoming part of the solution. The increased adaptation of renewables is resulting in the overall decarbonisation of the global energy spectrum helping the world inching away from polluting fossil fuels and thereby, achieving a clean energy transition.

In this engaging session, ARE is ready to introduce its network to innovative renewable energy generation technologies from its membership. The session will include industry experts and thought leaders from ARE membership presenting their state-of-the-art products and services offering to a wider audience followed by an interaction round with the audience.

Organizer: IRENA

Description: Road transport contributes the majority of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions of the transport sector. Its transition requires an accelerated deployment of electric vehicles and charging infrastructure paired with renewables-based electricity. However, various barriers are delaying the transition process in many markets. Policies and measures are urgently needed to address these barriers and accelerate the process. These include fuel efficiency standards, urban mobility policies, financial and fiscal incentives, as well as tailored measures and incentives for electric cars, two- and three-wheelers, buses, trucks, and the development of smart charging.

This event will share findings of IRENA’s forthcoming report, “Policies for advancing the renewables-based electrification of road transport”. It will highlight policies and examples to address current barriers and promote the renewables-based electrification of road transport in different contexts. A panel of experts will share insights and best practices from various regional perspectives.

Description: This webinar, "Water Resilience for Business," will explore how the private sector can turn water challenges into investment and business resilience opportunities. Companies that proactively integrate water resilience strategies—such as alternative water sourcing, smart metering, and reuse technologies—are securing their supply while simultaneously strengthening local water security. The financial community is also taking notice, with shareholder resolutions on water risk quadrupling in the last decade and growing interest in investing in businesses that demonstrate effective water stewardship.

The discussion will showcase real-world case studies, such as Virgin Active’s 62% reduction in water usage across 30 Western Cape branches through retrofitting and alternative water systems, and Growthpoint Properties' Estuaries office park, which achieved 70% water savings through smart metering. We will also hear from key industry leaders on how companies can diversify their water sources, implement innovative solutions, and collaborate with public institutions to drive a more resilient water future.
