The Pitch Program at the Africa Green Economy Summit 2026 is a remarkable culmination of extensive energy market research and a comprehensive evaluation of projects that are strategically aligned with Africa’s development goals.
With over 100 applications from initiative developers across the African continent, the AGES 2026 forum aims to connect potential investors around the world to the substantial growth driven across the continent by the new energy surge. Sustainable energy projects have become a must-have for Africa if it aims to meet the anticipated increase in energy demand.
“The overwhelming response and the exceptional quality of applications reaffirm Africa’s immense potential in the green economy. AGES 2026 is not merely a conference; it is the definitive platform where serious capital meets serious impact. Our rigorous vetting process ensures that investors encounter thoroughly de-risked and scalable projects that are poised to deliver both significant financial returns and verifiable environmental and social benefits.” – Elodie Delagneau, Investment Project Lead at VUKA Group
Energy experts have noted the strategic importance of the AGES 2026 summit as it serves as a potential growth platform for scalable energy projects in Africa that require substantial investments. AGES 2026 will offer investors the opportunity to assess the litany of planned development initiatives led by several African nations. The AGES 2026 summit will connect African developments to the world of international investors.
AGES 2026 will present a diversified investment portfolio for interested parties to peruse
The summit will offer significant developments for international investors to consider. The investing opportunities have been separated into several classifications, with the ‘Energy: Powering Africa’s Green Transformation’ class set to offer a new investment opportunity for the development of the African green energy sector.
The green energy sector is crucial to meet the needs of the African populace, as data has revealed that over 600 million Africans are still without electricity, which is unacceptable in 2026. Projects in this classification range from utility-scale solar projects to the more recent market development of green hydrogen. With African nations such as Uganda painting a new picture of growth, thanks to the new $4 billion refinery, Africa is set to welcome a world of new investments in its energy market this year.
The Pitch Programme offers an unparalleled opportunity for investors to engage directly with the innovators shaping Africa’s green future.Beyond the pitches, attendees will benefit from purpose-built matchmaking sessions, networking opportunities with leading DFIs, corporate partners, and policymakers, and deep insights into the continent’s evolving green economy landscape. Our goal is to significantly accelerate deal flow and ensure that every investor finds projects that align with their financial and impact mandates.” – Elodie Delagneau, Investment Project Lead at VUKA Group
