Farouk Benabdoun, Vice President of North, West and Central Africa of Siemens Energy, will participate as a speaker at Invest in African Energy (IAE) 2024 – a two-day forum connecting Africa’s leading energy projects with operators, investors and service providers. Active in over 50 African countries, Siemens is a global leader in energy technology and leads innovative energy initiatives across the continent, with a focus on power, renewable energy and hydrogen. In November 2023, Siemens signed an MOU with Germany company DAI Infrastruktur to develop a 2-million-ton-per-annum green ammonia project in Egypt, supplying electrolyzers, auxiliary plant systems and critical equipment. Organised by Energy Capital & Power, IAE 2024 (https://apo-opa.co/49krKXM) is an exclusive forum designed to facilitate investment between African energy markets and global investors. Meanwhile, Siemens Gamesa – a merger between Siemens’ wind power division and Spanish company Gamesa Corporación Tecnológica – has installed more than 3.4 GW of wind power capacity in Africa, representing half of the continent’s total capacity.
