More Event Information
In the last 12 months, Nigeria’s electricity sector has been transformed with the arrival of Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, who has set out clearly his intention to break down the barriers to investment in the country’s energy sector. Following President Muhammadu Buhari’s lead to tackle bottlenecks and inefficiencies, the Minister has embarked on a strategy to get the distribution companies working, providing support and regular interactions with the privately-held companies that have worked tirelessly to build the electricity backbone of Nigeria.

EnergyNet will facilitate this meeting by welcoming 250 decision-makers including DFIs, banks, developers and EPCs to discuss what is needed to fully support and enable the transformation of Nigeria’s electricity sector in the medium to long term.
