The 4th edition of the International Salon of Energy Transition, SITE 2026, is set to take place in Tunis from October 1 to 3. The event, organized by the Chamber of Syndicate of Photovoltaic, in partnership with the Tunisian Electricity and Gas Company (STEG) and the National Agency for Energy Management (ANME), aims to bring together over 60 Tunisian and foreign companies specializing in energy transition. The theme of this year's event is "Investing and innovating to accelerate the energy transition."
The event will feature six international conferences on key issues related to energy transition, including strategies for energy transition, major projects in the energy sector, and the development of renewable energies and energy storage. These conferences will provide a platform for experts and industry professionals to share knowledge and experiences. The event will also include business-to-business meetings to explore opportunities for cooperation, partnership, and financing in the sector.
A dozen startups specializing in energy transition will also participate in the event. The companies attending SITE 2026 come from various countries, including Italy, Germany, and Libya. The event is expected to provide a unique opportunity for networking and collaboration among industry professionals, policymakers, and investors.
The energy transition sector has gained significant importance in recent years, with many countries committing to reducing their carbon footprint and increasing the use of renewable energy sources. Tunisia, like many other countries, is working to increase its share of renewable energy in its energy mix. SITE 2026 aims to support this effort by promoting innovation and investment in the sector.
The event is being held at the headquarters of the Tunisian Confederation of Industry and Commerce (UTICA). The organizers expect a large turnout of industry professionals, policymakers, and investors. The event will provide a platform for companies to showcase their products and services and for attendees to learn about the latest developments in energy transition.
In addition to the conferences and business meetings, SITE 2026 will also feature an exhibition of products and services related to energy transition. The event is expected to contribute to the development of the energy transition sector in Tunisia and to promote the country's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint.
The success of SITE 2026 will be measured by the number of partnerships and investments generated during the event. The organizers expect the event to have a positive impact on the development of the energy transition sector in Tunisia and to contribute to the country's efforts to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels.
