Driving Energy Transition, Security, and Decarbonisation:
Egypt Energy Show (EGYPES 2024)

As the cornerstone for global energy dialogue for Africa and the Mediterranean, EGYPES 2024 is set to open its doors from 19–21 February 2024 in Cairo, Egypt.

Under the distinguished patronage of His Excellency Abdel Fattah El Sisi, President of the Arab Republic of Egypt, the Egypt Energy Show (EGYPES) 2024 is poised to open its doors next February, bearing the theme: "Driving Energy Transition, Security, and Decarbonisation." As the epicentre for global energy dialogue in Africa and the Mediterranean, EGYPES 2024 is underway to be the most pivotal edition to date.

Supported by the Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources, this exceptional Show will convene from 19-21 February at the Egypt International Exhibition Center. Anticipating participation from over 35,000 attendees and 2,200 delegates spanning the entire energy supply and value chains, EGYPES 2024 will engage in comprehensive discussions concerning worldwide energy dynamics, the latest industry trends, regional progress, and collective actions to achieving net-zero emissions.

His Excellency Tarek El Molla, Egypt’s Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources, underscored EGYPES's transformative role in the regional energy landscape, stating, "EGYPES has evolved into a cornerstone of the African and Mediterranean energy ecosystem, acting as a catalyst for business and investment in the regional energy market. Each year, we witness substantial growth, increased interest, and the formation of invaluable partnerships, thereby accelerating Egypt's ascendancy as a regional energy hub."

In light of the pressing imperative of addressing net-zero agendas, EGYPES 2024 will delve into the formidable challenges and opportunities inherent in achieving profound carbon reductions.
