Enlit Africa 2026 convenes Africa’s energy and water decision-makers at a moment when system pressure, infrastructure investment and long-term planning are increasingly intertwined. Taking place from 19–21 May 2026 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) in Cape Town, South Africa, the three-day conference and exhibition focuses on the practical, policy and investment challenges shaping the continent’s power and water sectors.
The 2026 programme delivers a multi-stream conference with expert-led discussions spanning policy and regulation, generation, transmission and distribution, renewables, storage, digitalisation, municipal infrastructure and the water–energy nexus. A large exhibition runs alongside the conference, showcasing technologies, services and solutions relevant to Africa’s evolving energy and water systems.
New for 2026 is the Level 2 Executive Experience, a private, deal-focused platform for senior decision-makers actively shaping, financing and delivering projects across the continent. It brings together the Project & Investment Network and Utility CEO Forum through closed-door discussions, pre-qualified matchmaking and dedicated deal rooms designed to accelerate investment outcomes.
The event also features a suite of co-located forums enabling deeper engagement on priority themes, including the Municipal Forum, Women in Energy, and Water Security Africa—all supporting practical knowledge exchange, collaboration and project development.
