The 2 events will be co-located in Tunis for the first time this year to deliver a one-of-a-kind business-making event experience for the renewable energy sector.
North Africa is rapidly becoming a global leader in renewable energy, driven by its abundant solar and wind resources. With countries like Tunisia aiming for a 30% renewable energy target by 2030, the region is set to become a key player in the green energy revolution.. The Renewable Energy Forum Africa (REFA) & SITE 2024 taking place on November 6th&7th Tunis-Tunisia will be the premier platform to explore these opportunities and shape the future of solar technologies. The event is co-organised by AFSIA (African Solar Industry Association), CSPV, MESIA (Middle East Solar Industry Association) and SolarPower Europe. "We’re thrilled to join REFA for the third time and build on its proven success in driving renewable energy investment across Africa. With Tunisia on the verge of a solar revolution, it’s the perfect place to unite key stakeholders to drive the African energy transition” added Walburga Hemetsberger, CEO of SolarPower Europe.
RFEA & SITE Co-located for the first time.
The Renewable Energy Forum Africa (REFA), and Salon International de la Transition Energétique (SITE), are leading events in Africa's renewable energy space.
