South Africa remains the highest emitter of carbon in Africa and is ranked 13th in the world behind China and the United States who are the largest. There is therefore a huge need to start implementing more energy efficient processes into ones general lifestyle, whether it be in companies, buildings, manufacturers, large industries or mines. This, coupled with the fact that Eskom provides 95% of the country's electricity, Southern Africa is currently facing a severe energy crisis.

This two day conference can facilitate the discussion by industry leaders in Southern Africa. The significance of this conference lies in the practical discussion of energy efficient solutions and current technology trends.

With the current hype on climate change and the Copenhagen Climate Summit in December this year, coupled with economic revival in the last quarters of this year, investments into energy efficiency will certainly witness a surge. More so, environmental concerns and energy security concerns are expected to be major drivers of the market, even in the face of a resilient economic downturn. Moreover, with renewable energy generation such as wind or solar being intermittent in nature, storage of energy helps balance the load during peak demand.

This is conference opportunity that you definitely will not want to miss. Focusing on practically implementing energy efficient techniques within your supply chain and production line, and determining the most effective ways of reducing energy consumption in your industry, the conference shall prove to be a technical, hands on event; providing you with a workable knowledge that you can take away and apply in your company.

Key Topics

- Analysing legislations and policies surrounding energy efficiency and debating how to overcome challenges facing the industry

- Boosting your competitive advantage by using the latest green technology in your business

- Examining the outcomes of the 2009 Copenhagen Summit and the consequences it will have on Southern Africa
