C&I CONFERENCE 2026
Africa’s Commercial & Industrial (C&I) power market is rapidly expanding as industries seek reliable, cost-effective, and clean energy solutions. In Kenya alone, over 600 MW of C&I capacity had been installed by 2025, with projections set to exceed 1 GW by 2030 — reflecting a broader continental shift toward energy resilience and sustainability.
Following the 2025 focus on reliability through solar PV, battery storage, and hybrid systems, the 2026 ESAK C&I Conference & Exhibition broadens the conversation. Under the theme “Powering Industries in Africa through C&I,” the conference positions C&I solutions as catalysts for industrial growth, competitiveness, and green development across Africa. Join industry leaders, policymakers, financiers, and innovators as we explore how C&I can power the continent’s industrial future.
