EAC development in Africa

Africa is as large as it is complex. Despite growing interconnections and rapid infrastructure development, Energy Attribute Certificate (EAC) markets on the continent remain fragmented, posing challenges for clean energy buyers.

In this session, we explore the development of International Renewable Energy Certificates (I-RECs) in the region and examine the examples of Egypt and South Africa — the continent’s largest markets — to understand the state and potential of energy tracking systems

On the agenda:

• Market challenges in Africa
• A growing I-REC market
  
• The EAC landscape in Egypt 
• Renewable energy development in South Africa
