The Alliance for Rural Electrification (ARE) is excited to announce that the 6th ARE Energy Access Investment Forum (EAIF) will take place in Lusaka, Zambia.
EAIF is a well-established political exchange and business event organised by ARE with local and regional partners – aimed at assisting the private and public sector to get up to speed on the latest developments in the off-grid sector and do business.
The ARE Forum is supported by our long-standing partner GET.invest, a European programme that mobilises renewable energy investments.
The Forum offers the opportunity:
- for companies to showcase their innovative off-grid solutions, products and services to investors and partners at our exhibition;
- for key public sector players to present their upcoming funding and de-risking programmes and policy initiatives;
- to find your business partners and advance your projects through the B2B matchmaking session;
- to discuss major sector trends and topics in the off-grid energy markets in Africa, where 95% of the rural population have no access to modern energy services; and
- to add your experience and proposals to the international dialogue for cooperation.
As a means to intensify the exchange with players from and outside Africa, ARE will once again highlight the clean energy access results achieved by the most passionate and innovative actors in the sector during the ARE Awards 2020 Ceremony on Day 1.
ARE Annual General Meeting will be held in conjunction with the Forum on the day before.
