The 11th Powering Africa Summit (PAS) will be returning to Washington, D.C. on 19–20 March 2026. Save the date.
PAS 2025 marked a major milestone—the Summit’s 10th anniversary—held under the theme “The Future of the US–Africa Energy Partnership.” The event welcomed the Honourable U.S. Secretary of Energy, Chris Wright, who delivered a keynote address and joined a fireside chat on the evolving US–Africa relationship. Vice Presidents and Honourable Ministers from across Africa also joined, as the new U.S. administration engaged directly with African energy leaders through high-level discussions and intimate roundtables.
Building on this momentum, PAS 2026 will convene under the theme “Powering the US–Africa Partnership: Energy Infrastructure, Critical Minerals & Investment Strategies.” We are pleased to welcome back Sun Africa as Summit Sponsor.
The Summit is a premier annual platform for dialogue and collaboration, bringing together U.S. government leaders, institutional investors, private financiers, and technology providers with African Ministers of Energy, Finance and Mineral Resources, regulators, utility leaders, and heads of transmission and distribution companies.
While PAS 2025 explored expectations surrounding U.S. foreign policy under a new administration, PAS 2026 will take stock of the past year—examining what has delivered, what has shifted, and what it means for banks, investors, and energy stakeholders across Africa.
