With less than three months to go, anticipation is building for the Namibia International Energy Conference 2025 (NIEC), scheduled to take place from April 23-25 at the Windhoek Country Club Resort.
Themed “Leading the Way: Becoming an Energy Hub with In-Country Value,” the conference aims to consolidate Namibia’s position as one of Africa’s premier energy hubs.
Now in its seventh edition, NIEC is Namibia’s most established and influential energy platform, bringing together key stakeholders to drive industry growth, investment and strategic discussions.
The event will convene government officials, industry leaders, investors and the broader business community to discuss and shape Namibia’s growing role as an energy hub.
The conference serves as a strategic platform for investment facilitation, technical insights and high-level policy discussions, ensuring that Namibia remains at the forefront of Africa’s energy transformation.
With growing interest from international investors, local industry leaders and service companies, NIEC 2025 is set to welcome energy leaders from across the globe.
NIEC 2025 will focus on advancing Namibia’s energy ambitions through investment, sustainability and local content.
With Namibia’s Upstream Local Content Policy now in effect, discussions will explore its potential impact on industry growth, workforce development and supply chain integration.
The conference will feature strategic industry intelligence sessions and technical presentations covering natural gas monetisation, the role of critical metals in the energy transition, renewable energy expansion, energy infrastructure and logistics, as well as financing Namibia’s energy future.
Beyond discussions, the event will showcase innovations in energy technology and infrastructure through an exhibition and facilitate deal-making and business growth through B2B networking sessions and investment roundtables.
In addition to high-level discussions, NIEC 2025 will host initiatives aimed at industry engagement, including the Future Energy Leaders Initiative, which provides mentorship and networking opportunities for young professionals in the energy sector.
Having welcomed over 2,200 attendees from 46 countries in previous editions, the conference remains Namibia’s premier platform for industry engagement.
This year Chevron has joined as an exclusive Diamond Sponsor, while Shell and RMB Namibia have reaffirmed their commitment as Sapphire Sponsors.
Other confirmed sponsors include Total Energies, Woodside Energy, SONILS and SBM Offshore, reinforcing Namibia’s growing role in the global energy landscape.
