Windaba Connect

Windaba Connect is an action led platform, created to drive initiatives that will impactfully transform the renewable energy sector. As the conversation starter, Windaba Connect will bring together key players to share knowledge, unpack best practices and develop measurable solutions that can be implemented, across the industry.

Following our learnings from 2022, we are excited to present our 2023 agenda, concentrating on improving engagement and impactful transformation in the renewable energy sector. With our experience in the industry so far, we have identified an opportunity to further structure industry discussions that can drive transformation.

The focus of this programme is to improve engagement and to strengthen South Africa’s renewable energy network.
