Event Highlights
More than half of Africa’s 1.2 billion people do not have access to a consistent and stable electricity supply. These communities rely on approximately 30 million diesel generators as their primary power source, with an average operating cost of over 30,000 USD per site and 31 tons of carbon emissions. With a global focus on achieving net-zero emissions, we believe that existing systems may be replaced by creative solutions and new green policies that will play an increasingly vital role in energy conservation and emissions reduction across all industries.
The Green ICT Forum this year intends to share insight, best practices, and critical learnings on how all sectors can collaborate to develop a zero-carbon plan and supply Africa’s people with clean, reliable energy.
- Implementing green policies in Africa to utilize its rich natural resources
- Creating eco-friendly business environments all over the continent
- Optimizing OPEX via lowering CO2 emissions
- Solar and hybrid energy systems to fuel Africa’s economy.
