Nigeria Solar Forum

12th March, 2026 | Oriental Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria

Defining what's next across Nigeria's renewable energy market

Leading gathering of players accross Nigeria's Renewable energy market. The premier platform for Nigeria's solar revolution

Shaping Nigeria's Clean Energy Future

For years, Eventhive's Nigeria Power Outlook was the premier platform for shaping dialogue on Nigeria's energy sector, where policymakers, investors, and innovators met to address power challenges and unlock opportunities. Now, as Nigeria's energy priorities evolve, so does the platform. Reborn as the Nigeria Solar Forum, this event reflects the country's sharp focus on renewable energy, and specifically, on the solar revolution powering homes, industries, and communities nationwide.

The Nigeria Solar Forum is a strategy and solutions hub. Built on years of convening decision-makers at Nigeria Power Outlook, it provides both the market intelligence and the deal-making environment to accelerate Nigeria's clean energy transition. Nigeria has set ambitious targets: 30 GW by 2030, half from renewables, and over $9 billion projected in off-grid solar investment. This makes the country not just a market, but West Africa's most dynamic frontier for solar innovation and investment.

At the Forum, you'll engage with the entire solar value chain, from developers scaling commercial and industrial projects, to financiers driving bankable deals, to government agencies building enabling frameworks, and innovators redefining reliability through storage and digital solutions.

Key Content Focus

Nigeria Solar Forum will focus exclusively on Nigeria's renewable energy market realities, policies, challenges, and opportunities, rather than offering a broad, pan-African sweep, it zeroes in on the unique drivers of Nigeria's solar revolution:

The rapid uptake of mini-grids and off-grid systems in underserved communities.

The rise of innovative financing models that are unlocking both rural and urban solar adoption.

The booming commercial and industrial solar market, as businesses seek independence from an unreliable grid.

The policy reforms, like the Electricity Act 2023, that are reshaping how renewable energy is deployed nationwide.
