From July 2 to 4, 2025, Megawatt , West Africa's leading energy trade fair, returns to the Accra International Conference Center in Ghana. It's an unmissable event for energy companies looking to expand into one of Africa's most dynamic and promising markets.

In recent years, Ghana has experienced sustained economic growth, thanks in part to mining activities (gold, bauxite, and oil) and the expansion of its industrial, urban, and service sectors. In this context, the energy sector plays a key role in the country's infrastructural and social development.

Today, approximately 85% of Ghana's population has access to electricity , but grid expansion remains a priority in rural areas. Electrification projects and off-grid solutions, such as solar panels, are transforming the energy landscape, fostering inclusion and local growth.

Ghana stands out for its diversified energy mix , in which traditional and renewable sources coexist:

• Hydropower : The historic Akosombo Dam on the Volta River continues to be a mainstay of production.

• Thermoelectric : rapidly developing, thanks to the natural gas and oil reserves in the Gulf of Guinea.

• Solar : a rapidly expanding sector, with enormous potential due to high solar radiation.

• Biomass : mainly used in rural communities.

This combination makes Ghana a strategic energy hub in West Africa, capable of attracting foreign investment and opening up new technological and commercial collaborations.

Why participate in Megawatt 2025

The Megawatt fair represents a concrete opportunity for:

• Meet public and private buyers interested in technologies for energy production, distribution and management.

• Meet local partners with whom you can develop joint ventures, distribution networks, or nationwide projects.

• Engage with government agencies involved in the planning and financing of strategic energy projects.

• Access international tenders and financing , thanks to the presence of institutions such as the African Development Bank, the EU and the World Bank, which often co-finance energy projects in the country.
