The Africa Energy Technology Centre (AETC) is proud to announce a strategic partnership with the Namibia Local Content Conference and Exhibition (NLCC) in the lead-up to the highly anticipated Africa Energy Technology Conference 2025, scheduled to take place from May 27 to 29, 2025 at the Labadi Beach Hotel in Accra, Ghana.
Organized by AETC in collaboration with the Ministry of Energy and Green Transition, Ghana, this year’s conference will convene under the theme: “Innovate, Invest, Implement: Revolutionised Financing for Sustainable Energy Sector Growth in Africa.”
This landmark partnership with NLCC underscores a shared commitment to driving inclusive and transformative energy development across the continent. As a premier platform advancing Namibia’s local content agenda, the NLCC brings rich expertise and a collaborative framework focused on local participation, institutional capacity building, and industrial resilience—values that align seamlessly with AETC’s mission.
NLCC is designed to promote in-country value creation, skills development, policy coherence, and investment facilitation in line with Namibia’s Vision 2030 and the broader African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) goals. Its extensive network includes government agencies, oil and gas operators, SMEs, investors, academia, and community-based enterprises.
This partnership between AETC and NLCC marks a significant step toward creating a unified African approach to sustainable energy development. By leveraging NLCC’s robust stakeholder engagement model and AETC’s pan-African energy innovation platform, the collaboration seeks to:
- Deepen regional knowledge exchange and innovation,
- Foster stronger policy and investment synergies,
- Drive inclusive growth through local content strategies, and
- Support Africa’s transition to cleaner and more sustainable energy systems.
Speaking on the partnership Ms. Emelia Akumah, Founder and President of the Africa Energy Technology state that, “The inclusion of NLCC in this year’s Africa Energy Technology Conference reinforces our vision to connect African energy players, policymakers, and innovators in a transformative dialogue about the future of energy on the continent. We believe this collaboration will amplify the momentum for local content integration, sustainable financing, and regional cooperation.”
