Location: Sunbird Livingstonia Beach Hotel, Salima District, Malawi

Description: Malawi is currently facing significant challenges in its energy sector, particularly in terms of energy availability, accessibility, mix, security and sufficiency. With approximately more than 80% of the population lacking access to energy, development efforts are undermined considering that energy is a catalyst for sustainable development. Furthermore, about 70% of Malawi’s energy comes from hydro sources with production centralised on the Shire River in southern Malawi.

Consequently, the country is heavily dependent on a single energy source leading to vulnerability. In order to help in addressing these issues, the Renewable Energy Industries Association of Malawi (REIAMA), in partnership with the Ministry of Energy and Development Partners, aims to organise the 2023 National Energy Conference. This conference is a successor to another successful conference held in 2022, themed “Energy – Catalyst for Sustainable Development.”
