Coal and Clean Coal Power

15 Oct 2026
Buffalo Stage, Hall 1.4
Powering Africa Forum
As geopolitical tensions continue to mount across the Gulf and prices face even greater fluctuation in the near-term, the question is no longer whether coal-fired power generation is politically fashionable, but how African economies can utilize the resource to stabilize power costs, preserve foreign exchange and support business continuity. This session explores how Africa’s legacy coal assets and cleaner technology can help balance energy security and affordability.
