Enlit Africa 2025 – switched on to the power, energy and water sector

by maurisha

Enlit Africa, the continent’s pivotal annual gathering for the power, energy and water sector, is returning to Cape Town from 20-22 May 2025 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC). Building on an impactful 2024 event that saw over 6,200 attendees, including 348 C-level executives and 250+ speakers, Enlit Africa 2025 will once again unite stakeholders to drive actionable solutions and forge partnerships to address the continent’s energy challenges.

With a comprehensive programme that reflects the diverse and complex needs of Africa’s energy market, Enlit Africa 2025 will cover crucial topics such as sustainable energy access, the role of digitalisation in infrastructure resilience, and strategies to enhance decarbonisation. Following the success of last year’s newly introduced Water Track and Project Pitch Day, this year’s event will offer attendees even more opportunities to engage with innovative ideas and projects.

Attendees can expect inspiring sessions from high-profile speakers, cutting-edge exhibitions showcasing the latest products and services, as well as exclusive networking opportunities. Noteworthy speciality events include the Women in Energy Breakfast, CEO Forum, and Municipal Forum.

In addition, the 2025 event will feature the much-anticipated Project Pitch Day, where groundbreaking African projects valued at over $1 billion are set to attract investment, reinforcing Enlit Africa’s role as a platform for actionable solutions.

In 2024, Enlit Africa brought together influential figures from across Africa and beyond, including senior energy officials, utility CEOs, policy makers and tech innovators. This year promises to further elevate discussions with insights from some of the brightest minds in energy.
