Zimbabwe-Zambia Energy Projects Summit Fosters Sustainable Future

From November 18-20, 2024, the Zimbabwe-Zambia Energy Projects Summit takes place in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. This event is timely as both governments introduce reforms to enhance the investment appeal of energy projects, aiming for a sustainable energy future. The biennial summit, under Zimbabwe's Ministry of Energy and Power Development, focuses on renewables, grid modernization, and energy access.

Supported by the Zimbabwe Energy Regulatory Authority, discussions will cover substantial private sector investment in solar, geothermal, and wind energy. The event seeks to mitigate risks and accelerate financial closure for projects, especially important given the severe drought conditions affecting Eastern and Southern Africa.

Key topics include creating an attractive investment environment and employing innovative solutions to achieve universal energy access. High-profile speakers will include various ministers, the EU Ambassador to Zimbabwe, and representatives from major financial institutions, all uniting to drive progress.
