There is evidence of global energ y deficit and Africa has never been able to provide sustainable power of a bout Seventy percent (70 %) of the Nigerian population which do not have a ccess to electricity. There are untapped renewable energy sources in Niger ia such as Wind power\, solar\, Biomass\, Geothermal.\n\nThe challenges pe rsist which includes universal access\, decarbonization\, political initia tive for energy transition\, derisking and promoting private sector invest ments\, promoting access to energy\, strengthening and modernizing the gri d\, supporting systems innovation.\n\nThe specified challenges can be a po tential to Nigeria by creating a business model which has private capital\ , public good towards a more developed power sector. Creating an enabling environment where power sector policies\, Legislation\, Regulatory framewo rks are flexible and commercially viable/secure ownership rights.\n\nThere is a clarion call on Nigerian to arise and build the Nation harvesting an d harnessing the free natural renewable energies for 24/7 power sustainabi lity in Africa through Individuals\, Communities\, States\, Local and fore ign Investors to build\, run and handover.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Lawrence Ek eng \n\nSpeaker(s): Eko James Akpama \n\nAgenda: \n1.0 Commencement\n\n2.0 Opening remark by the Host\, Engr.
