Forum
[Wind to Power Africa]
Greatest Forum of Wind to Power Africa

Once in a year, a group of interesting and impactful people from Africa gathers for the week-long experience — which attendees have described as “the ultimate brain spa” and “a journey into the African future energy.”

Africa’s wind energy potential is substantial, however, this potential is less uniformly distributed than Africa’s solar resources. The best prospects for wind power development are close to coastal locations, mountain ranges and other natural channels in the northern and southern regions of the African continent that could add about 8,500 MW to Africa’s general energy production by 2025.
