Over 8,500 energy professionals, including energy commissioners, developers, regulators, financiers, and technology providers, will converge in Lagos from October 28–30, 2025, for the 12th edition of the Nigeria Energy Conference and Exhibition.
The event, organised by Informa Markets and endorsed by the Federal Ministry of Power, will explore the theme “Powering Nigeria through Investment, Innovation, and Partnership.” It aims to address the nation’s most pressing energy challenges while promoting investment-driven solutions across the power value chain.
This year’s edition will focus on unlocking capital, advancing policy reforms, and deploying new technologies to build a more reliable and sustainable energy sector.
“Now in its twelfth year, Nigeria Energy continues to serve as a catalyst for collaboration and deal-making across generation, transmission, distribution, renewables, off-grid systems, and energy efficiency,” said Ade Yesufu, Exhibition Manager, Energy Portfolio – MEA, Informa Markets.
“With Nigeria facing critical infrastructure gaps, slow-moving reforms, and investment bottlenecks, the 2025 edition seeks to spark actionable conversations around public-private partnerships, regulatory harmonisation, and emerging opportunities in hydrogen, decentralised solar, and grid digitisation,” he added.
Yesufu described the 2025 theme as both strategic and timely, given the current reform momentum in the power sector.
“The theme reflects the urgent need to address infrastructure deficits, mobilise investment, and accelerate reforms. Nigeria Energy 2025 will provide a platform where stakeholders can align on policies, forge new partnerships, and showcase innovations capable of driving the sector forward,” he said.
