The Exhibition is open to all interested companies and organisations. We especially encourage the private sector to participate, present its products and projects and showcase the technologies and know-how at the forefront of off-grid renewables.

Do not miss out on your best opportunity to connect and network with the most influential group of off-grid professionals this year.

The Exhibition is an opportunity for companies to:

• Present their products and projects;
• Showcase the latest off-grid technologies and know-how;
• Raise their company’s profile in developing markets, especially in Africa;
• Create business by networking with representatives from rural electrification agencies, the private sector, financing institutions, development agencies and international organisations;
• Demonstrate their commitment to ARE’s collective and ongoing commitment to the UN’s ‘Sustainable Energy for All’ initiative and Sustainable Development Goal (SDG7).

20 stands are currently available.
