SUMMARY:International Online Conference: Private investment in electricity transmission in Africa
DESCRIPTION:The African School of Regulation (ASR)\, Gridworks\, and Hunton Andrews Kurth\, in collaboration with the African Development Bank (AfDB) and the African Forum of Utility Regulators (AFUR)\, organized a high-level online conference on the regulatory environment\, business model designs\, and financial approaches necessary to attract private investment in the transmission electricity infrastructure that Africa needs to develop its power sector. \n\n\n\nThe conference took place between March 11th and 13th\, 2024. \n\n\n\nThe conference focused on two aspects: \n\n\n\n i) independent transmission projects for the reinforcement of existing national transmission networks and the development of cross-border transmission lines;  \n\n\n\nii) the removal of the current regulatory barriers that impede or create unnecessary risks for the participation of private investment in these projects. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nConference Program\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDOWNLOAD THE PROGRAMME (PDF)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVideos for the conference\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nUnderstanding Brazil’s Transmission Model: A Presentation by Luiz Barroso: CEO of PSR Energy Consulting and Analytics and former Director of Brazilian Energy Planning Agency.

SUMMARY:Electricity Access and Healthcare in Sub-Saharan Africa: An Initial Conversation
DESCRIPTION:About the event\n\n\n\nThis event will explore the critical link between reliable electricity access and effective healthcare delivery in Sub-Saharan Africa. An estimated 100\,000 health facilities lack dependable electricity\, hindering basic services like lighting\, medical equipment operation\, and vaccine and medication storage. The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the urgency of addressing this challenge. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a conversation exploring findings from the recent Sustainable Energy for All (SEforAll) report\, “State of the Market Report for Healthcare Facility Electrification.” We’ll delve into current trends\, challenges\, and lessons learned\, along with financing and investment needs. We’ll also discuss implemented business models\, their suitability\, and suggested regulatory interventions for financial sustainability. \n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpeaker: \n\n\n\n\nLuc Severi – Programme Manager\, Powering Healthcare\, Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL)\n\n\n\n\nModerator: \n\n\n\n\nLouise Mathu – Regulatory Expert\, African School of Regulation (ASR)
