2nd Sub-Saharan Africa Solar Summit:
Energy Storage & Battery Conference:
Harnessing the Solar Potential in Africa
Solar and Energy Storage
Benchmarking Progress & Advocating Real Growth
Two Great Things that Go Even Better Together!
 Overview of the current status, opportunities and targets for solar
energy generation in Sub-Saharan Africa from Tanzania, Kenya,
Ethiopia, Uganda, South Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, etc.
 Case study of rural electrification through fuel cell technologies by Anglo
American Platinum
 Discover the Solar Energy Roadmap from active and emerging
African countries
 Evaluating the critical role of providing and using low-cost and highperformance storage technologies to enable intermittent renewable
energy use for developing into a source of mainstream energy
 Understand why and how rooftop solar and the rising middle class
can be the missing link to solar development in Africa
 How electricity markets can evolve to reward energy storage and how to
maximize investment in energy storage
 Find out about feed-in tariffs, the net-metering debate, and incentives
and policies to attract solar developments
 Practical applications of the latest battery and energy storage innovations
for Africa
 View insightful case studies of successful projects in the region
including case studies of small-scale solar energy projects
 How to make grid energy storage attractive for utilities who are naturally
risk averse and conservative by establishing ways to reduce cost,
regulatory support and clarifying business models
 Learn risk mitigation and management strategies and hear about
what other investors are looking for when investing in solar energy
 Creating a competitive IPP program and PPA structuring for solar
energy producers and Investment, financing and partnership models
 Local manufacturing of solar PV components and how local
manufacturing will accelerate solar technology adoption
 Rural electrification and mini grids case studies and evaluation

 Analysing the different financing options for developing solar projects
and matching the best funding mechanism to the desired project
objective
 Commercialising energy storage technologies by targeting applications
where large amounts of energy are required to make up for fluctuations in
supply and demand, which is expected to be more acute as more RE is
utilised
 Creating hybrid energy storage systems and how RE suppliers and
companies supplying energy systems and technologies can collaborate to
develop innovative and cost-effective storage solutions
 Increasing renewable capacity to meet carbon reduction targets through
cost-effective, scalable and safe battery technologies
 Low cost energy storage solutions for off-grid and mini grid applications
 Evaluating and applying latest battery technologies for the African
landscape taking into account features such as deep-energy daily cycling
capabilities, load shifting, diesel optimisation, cycle-to-cycle capacity fade,
renewable integration and transmission integrity
 Safety strategies for energy storage and understanding various failure
mechanisms to ensure robust systems
 Lifecycle management of batteries to reduce costs and capacity fade
 Practical considerations for grid energy storage in Africa and methods to
reduce future integration risks with RE

The Only Solar Event that Emphasizes the Growing Importance
of Energy Storage Applications in Africa and Dissects the Real Practical Issues
Backed by Influential Speakers from Both the Public and Private Sectors!
Key Facts Powering the 2nd Sub-Sahara Africa Solar Summit
 Various African governments stepping-up their efforts to create an enabling environment, as well
as being driven by various feed-in tariff schemes
 Better solar economics in terms of reduced installation costs can only mean solar will get bigger
and better for Africa
 Current installed megawatts at only a minimal of 1% of projected demand - 1GW at the end of
2013 and analysts projecting Solar PV capacity to increase to 2GW end-2015 and 4.4GW by
2020 - therefore the market attractiveness in Africa needs to be stepped-up further to offer better
growth opportunities
 Given the price of solar PV modules have dropped drastically from $76/W in 1977 to $0.80/W in
2013, we are almost dead set to experience robust and dynamic growth
 Energy storage technologies offer great promise for Africa to solve electrical infrastructure
challenges, defer expensive maintenance costs and be the driver for more efficient and resilient
grids
 Potential to create an unstoppable hybrid force if energy storage technologies continue to
combine better with PV technologies to offer a clean, resilient, economical and dependable
source of energy
