African Energy Week

Date: 16 - 20 October 2023
Location: Cape Town, South Africa

African Energy Week (AEW) is the African Energy Chamber’s annual event, uniting African energy leaders, global investors and executives from across the public and private sector for four days of intense dialogue on the future of the African energy industry. An interactive conference, exhibition and networking event, AEW was established in 2021 under the premise to make energy poverty history by 2030, hosting panel discussions, investor forums, industry summits and one-on-one meeting opportunities, and driving the discussions that will reshape the trajectory of the continent’s energy development.

At the forefront of the African energy industry, AEW promotes the role Africa plays in global energy matters, centered around African-led dialogue and decision making. Covering the entire energy sector and value chain, AEW represents the only conference on the continent representative of the entire sector.

AEW takes place across multiple venues at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town – a new form of event structure utilizing a hub of venues designed to host over 5,000 delegates. Attendees are granted the opportunity to design their own program, choosing sessions they wish to participate in while engaging in a variety of networking functions. At its core, the conference aims to make energy poverty history by 2030, with the innovative event structure expanding opportunities for dialogue, engagement and deal-signings.
