On November 17th, Thursday, the event “Renewables for Industry and Agriculture in Mozambique” will take place at the Southern Sun hotel in Maputo, as part of the week of industrialization in Africa, which will take place between November 14th and 18th
.
Given the energy access challenges in Mozambique, renewable energies offer a competitive and reliable solution to increase the profitability and sustainability of agricultural and industrial projects. Even tough the national market for renewable energies is already well developed, the event will focus on raising awareness and informing professionals in the agricultural and industrial sector about the existing offer and the benefits and savings that can be obtained from these technologies.

In this context, the event “Renewables for Industry and Agriculture in Mozambique” will be the starting point to clarify the technical and financial concepts of renewable energy projects, present real case studies, as well as disseminate credit lines and other financing mechanisms, with the aim of increasing demand for renewable energy by the industrial and agricultural sectors and promoting private investment.

During this event, renewable energy companies will have the opportunity to present their products and services to the agricultural and industrial sector through a pitch session, complemented by several occasions for networking.

“Renewables for Industry and Agriculture in Mozambique” will be a unique opportunity for industrial, agricultural and energy entrepreneurs to come together, with financiers, to establish contacts, partnerships and future businesses, with socio-economic and environmental benefits for companies, for the Mozambican economy and for all the population.

For this event, which will be simultaneously transmitted online, more than 100 participants are expected to participate. Register for free and secure your spot here: https://aler-renovaveis.typeform.com/ren-ind-agr-mz?typeform-source=www.aler-renovaveis.org
