: According to an Oxfam report Sub-Saharan Africa which is home to approximately 950 million people is the most electricity-poor region. More than 600 million people lack access to electricity, and millions more are connected to an unreliable grid that does not meet their daily energy service needs. Most countries in this region have electricity access rates of about 20%, and two out of three people lack access to modern energy services. Now the African Utility week brings together over 7000 decision makers to source the latest solutions and meet over 300 suppliers. It focuses on all aspects of the provision of energy services to the African market.

To help us unpack the discussion for the day, we are joined by:

• Dom Wills is the CEO of Solar Future

• Romain Py is the Investment Director and head of transactions at African Infrastructure Investment Manager

• Debmalya Banerjee is the Regional Director at the Indian Chamber of Commerce
