SUMMARY:Webinar: Regulating Energy Storage in Africa
DESCRIPTION:Background \n\n\n\nAfrica’s energy landscape is undergoing a significant transformation\, with a growing emphasis on renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power. These intermittent energy sources necessitate effective energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability and reliability. The rapid decline in battery costs—over 90% since 2010—has made large-scale energy storage more feasible. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInitiatives such as South Africa’s Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project\, funded by the Bank\, aim to support grid stability and manage peak demand. The project includes large-scale utility batteries with a daily capacity of 1\,440 MWh and 60 MW of solar PV. The Bank is also funding a technical feasibility\, policy and regulatory diagnostics study for the adoption and implementation of grid connected Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) in Nigeria. Additionally\, during COP28\, several African countries expressed interest in joining the Battery Energy Storage Systems Consortium\, aiming to revolutionize Africa’s energy landscape through advanced energy storage solutions. However\, the regulatory frameworks governing energy storage remain underdeveloped across many African countries\, creating barriers to investment and deployment. \n\n\n\nThis webinar seeks to address the key regulatory challenges and opportunities in the energy storage sector. It will explore policy frameworks\, market incentives\, and technical standards necessary to foster innovation and attract investment. Additionally\, the session will highlight successful case studies from both African nations and international markets\, offering insights into best practices for establishing a conducive regulatory environment that supports the scaling up of energy storage solutions. \n\n\n\nTimeTopicSpeaker13:00-13:10Welcome and introduction  Opening statements    MC – Rhoda Mshana\, Energy Regulations Specialist Mr. Wale Shonibare\, Director\, Energy Financial Solutions\, Policy and Regulations\, AfDB13:10-13:25Key Presentation: The importance of energy storage in Africa’s energy transition  Prof. Ignacio Pérez-Arriaga\, African School of Regulation13:25-14:40Panel Discussion: Technological and Regulatory Landscape\, including the economic and market considerations of Battery Storage in Africa        Chair: Callixte Kambanda\, Manager\, Energy Policy\, Regulations & Statistics\, AfDB Panelists : Wale Aboyade\, Managing Director\, Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP)Engr.

SUMMARY:Can she survive - or thrive? Rethinking the utility business model in the age of DERs
DESCRIPTION:The Africa School of Regulation (ASR)\, in collaboration with Sustainable Energy Africa and GET.transform\, is hosting this webinar to explore how Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) are reshaping utility service delivery\, remuneration\, and regulation. \n\n\n\nThe Challenge\n\n\n\nFor over a century\, utilities operated on a simple model: supply electricity to passive consumers and recover costs through tariffs. Today\, that model is under pressure. Distributed Energy Resources (DERs)\, from rooftop solar to battery storage are transforming how electricity is produced\, consumed\, and valued. \n\n\n\nAcross Africa\, this shift meets a fragile foundation. Distribution companies already face financial strain from low-cost recovery and high losses. DERs could deepen these challenges by reducing sales volumes and disrupting revenue flows. Yet\, they also offer opportunities: new sources of flexibility\, reliability\, and grid support if properly valued. \n\n\n\nThis raises a critical question: Can the traditional utility model survive—or even thrive—in a decentralised energy landscape? \n\n\n\nAbout the Webinar\n\n\n\nThis session will open a forward-looking conversation on how DERs are reshaping utility service\, remuneration\, and regulation. It will explore: \n\n\n\n\nHow DERs disrupt traditional cost-recovery models\n\n\n\nWhat fair value exchange looks like in a multi-actor system\n\n\n\nHow tariff and remuneration frameworks must evolve\n\n\n\n\nDesigned for regulators\, utilities\, policymakers\, and energy professionals\, the webinar will challenge long-standing assumptions and set the stage for practical solutions in future capacity-building programs. \n\n\n\n\nDownload the presentation

SUMMARY:International online conference: Regulatory frameworks for the deployment and integration of solar energy in the power sector of African countries 
DESCRIPTION:Register Here\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe African School of Regulation (ASR)\, in collaboration with the International Solar Alliance (ISA)\, is hosting a three-day\, open\, online\, high-level conference to discuss how regulation can enable and promote the deployment and integration of solar electricity generation in African countries’ power sectors at scale and with sustainable models. The conference will consider utility-scale power plants\, distributed grid-connected solar resources\, and off-grid solutions\, with a focus on the former.  \n\n\n\nContext   \n\n\n\nAfrica possesses some of the richest solar resources in the world.1 Yet\, despite this potential\, as of 2023 the continent’s installed utility-scale solar PV capacity stood at approximately 15 GW—less than 2% of the global total of over 1 TW.2 By comparison\, the European Union alone had over 260 GW3\, and China more than 500 GW4.  \n\n\n\nAfrica’s electricity demand is expected to more than double by 2040\, driven by population growth—from 1.4 billion today to 2.5 billion in 2050—and economic development. More than 600 million people in Africa lack any access to electricity today. Solar PV represents a critical opportunity to deliver affordable\, clean\, and scalable power to meet the associated demand. Falling technology costs—utility-scale PV levelized cost of electricity has dropped by 89% since 2010 globally —make it competitive with fossil fuel generation in many African countries.  \n\n\n\nHowever\, achieving full electrification\, adequate economic development\, and a decarbonised economy by 2050 will require hundreds of billions of dollars in new investments\, as well as operation and maintenance costs for solar PV generation. These investments must be supported by predictable regulatory frameworks that inspire confidence among developers\, financiers\, and utilities. A sound regulatory framework for solar generation is essential at all levels.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nConference program\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDownload the conference program \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDownload the speaker’s bio \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresentations \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresent situation of investment\, business modelsand regulation of solar electricitygeneration in African countries\,bySaachi Singla\, Private Sector Specialist\, ISA.
