Enlit Africa, set for 20-22 May 2025 in Cape Town, is the continent’s premier gathering for the power, energy and water sectors. It opens the door to opportunities for commercial and industrial (C&I) companies seeking to achieve energy and water security through self-generation and sustainable resource management.
With rising energy costs, water scarcity and grid reliability challenges, C&I businesses are turning to renewable energy, smart technologies and innovative water solutions to ensure operational resilience. Enlit Africa provides a dynamic platform for C&I leaders to gain actionable insights, forge partnerships and align with global trends towards decarbonisation and resource efficiency. Featuring over 200 speakers and a comprehensive programme, this event empowers businesses to implement integrated energy and water strategies.
Why Enlit Africa is Essential for C&I Companies
For C&I companies, securing reliable energy and water supplies is critical to maintaining productivity and competitiveness. Self-generation through solar, wind and battery storage reduces reliance on unstable grids, while advanced water management technologies address scarcity and regulatory pressures. Enlit Africa tackles these challenges by showcasing solutions like smart grids, battery energy storage systems (BESS) and water-efficient technologies, alongside financing models to make them accessible. By attending, C&I companies can learn to optimise resource use, mitigate risks and build sustainable operations that support long-term profitability and environmental goals.
A Virtual Programme for C&I Energy and Water Strategies
To maximise the Enlit Africa experience, we’ve curated a ‘virtual programme’ highlighting sessions that support self-generation, energy security and water management. Spanning the Strategise, Innovate, Renewable Energy & Storage Hub, Water Hub and Project & Investment Network stages, these sessions offer practical tools for C&I companies to implement integrated resource solutions. You can access the Virtual Programme here.
