Invitation 1st Zambian Small Hydro Summit

    Renewable energy sources are abundant in Zambia. Especially hydropower is playing already a key role in Zambia’s energy mix. However, a large and untapped potential remains for small scale hydropower, especially for the rural electrification.

    In collaboration with the Zambian Ministry of Energy and other Zambian government stakeholders, GET FiT Zambia is currently creating (attractive) framework conditions for the development and implementation of small hydro projects in the next few years.

    The 1st Zambian Small Hydro Summit, aims to open the dialogue between the different stakeholders including operators, technology and service providers, government entities and financial institutions.

    On January 24th, 2019 we invite you to join the 1st Zambian Small Hydro Summit. You will see different lectures and presentations covering technical and commercial solutions for small hydro projects in Zambia.
