The crisis bedeviling Nigeria’s power sector may soon be over as experts converge on Lagos to proffer solutions to the various aspect of electricity value chain.
The event, Energy Exhibition and Conference is a gathering of energy professionals, featuring world-renowned, innovative power companies, and is set to make a long-awaited in-person return from September 20 to 22.
Exhibition Manager – Energy portfolio – MEA, Informa Markets, Ade Yesufu, said “Nigeria’s power sector needs technological transformation and digitalization to compete globally and achieve sustainable growth.
The first step to achieving this would be to attract key local and international investors not only to dialogue with other stakeholders but also to discover viable mechanisms to solve the challenges in the energy sector. This is what we will achieve with Nigeria Energy. The 9th edition will further these conversations and offers a platform to reflect some of the changes that are going on in the power sector globally.”
Supporting the exhibition are leading global players in the power and infrastructure industry such as SkipperSeil Limited, a global leader in power and infrastructure, confirmed as the Main Sponsor, Simba Industries and Tetracore Group as Platinum Sponsors; Tranos, Himel and Mikano International as Gold Sponsors; while Eaton, Lucy Electric, Greenville LNG, and Jubaili Bros are confirmed as Silver Sponsors.
Divisional Head, Skipper ETS Electric Limited, Sunil Bhardwaj, said “We have been in the Nigerian market for about 20 years and have been supporting informal markets with the energy exhibitions since 2016.
Our partnership for this 9th edition shows our belief in Nigeria Energy to converge the best minds in the energy and power sector. Skipper ETS is a joint venture company brought in as an investment to Nigeria by two giants – Skipper Nigeria and ETS Electric. Skipper Nigeria is a leader in generation and transmission and has recently been working with the federal and state governments of Nigeria to open power plants.”
Head, Regulatory and Compliance, Tetracore Energy, Oladayo Williams, said, “Tetracore Energy is a full value chain energy company positioned to operate within the Oil and Gas sector and the Power sector, but have currently diversified our portfolio and are moving towards power.
We are looking toward the development of the power sector through operation and maintenance. Over the course of the exhibition and conference, we will be speaking more on the values that we have to offer to the growth of the power sector.”
These key industry players will exhibit the latest products at Nigeria Energy, alongside a further hundred suppliers of energy solutions and the prestigious Nigeria Energy conference.
