Renewables in Africa – The World's Next Powerhouse
The future of the renewable energy industry in Africa continues to be promising, with an abundance of suitable resources and increased interest in stimulating green economic growth. As with all markets, however, Africa presents its own set of issues and risks which stakeholders must consider before becoming involved in renewables projects on the continent.
Please join Mayer Brown and distinguished guests where we will discuss the latest legal and market developments in the renewables sector in Africa.
This will be followed by a networking reception.
