Delivering Mozambique’s Sustainable Energy Future
As the world pivots towards sustainable energy solutions, Mozambique is positioning itself at the heart of this shift with a strategic $80 billion energy transition plan. Home to one of the largest natural gas reserves in Africa and rapidly emerging as a leader in renewable energy, Mozambique aims to harness its vast renewable resources—such as wind, solar, and hydro—while leveraging its gas reserves to foster economic growth and expand energy access.
In line with this vision, the upcoming Mozambique Gas & Energy Summit & Exhibition (19-21 November 2024) will serve as the official platform for stakeholders in the global energy sector. Hosted by dmg events and ENH, this event will bring together key players, from government officials to international investors, to explore project development opportunities and engage in discussions around Mozambique’s sustainable energy future.
