Renpower Burkina Faso – The Renewable Energy & Power Infrastructure Investors Conference

Ouagadougou

Ouagadougou – 12.09.2019

Renpower Burkina Faso 2019 – The Renewable Energy, Power Infrastructure & Energy Efficiency Investors Conference is set to take place in Ouagadougou on September 12.

Among the prime speakers in the program will be H.E. Dr. Bachir Ismael Ouedraogo – Minister of Energy of Burkina Faso and Dr. Bruno Korgo – General Director for Renewable Energies at the Ministry. There is a strong involvement of the authorities in this event and all the key local stakeholders and relevant International Financial Institutions will attend and be available for networking with the conference participants.

A hub of renewable energies – Burkina Faso is one of the least electrified countries globally, currently at 19% overall, with 60% of the urban and only 3% of the rural population connected to electricity. In a country where 19 million inhabitants have no access to electricity, having a reliable, cheap and efficient energy supply is crucial. The country is facing a rapid increase in domestic energy demand and other sectors including those of industry, transport and urban domestic demand.

The Government of Burkina Faso has set forth a bold national plan and has taken steps to introduce legislation to encourage private sector investment and to liberalize electricity generation and distribution. This is resulting in a huge potential for investment and technology cooperation for both the grid and off-grid needs. The country is currently opening its doors and welcoming project developers, investors and other market participants.

The detailed agenda and the registration form will be sent to you upon your indication of an interest. Registrations are now open with special early bird conditions.

Interested by a speaking opportunity or a display stand? We have kept the possibility for a limited number of private sector companies to have a speaking slot in one of the sessions of the agenda or to have a space for a display stand in the conference foyer. If you are interested to know more about the proposed cost-effective packages, I will send you details on the benefits and current conditions.
