ERCE to Attend African Energy Week (AEW) 2024 in Cape Town

ERCE is excited to participate in African Energy Week (AEW) 2024, taking place from 4-8 November in Cape Town, South Africa. Johnny Hull, CEO, and Nicholas Wormwell, Regional Sales Manager – Africa, will be representing ERCE at this pivotal event.

AEW, organised by the African Energy Chamber, is the continent’s premier energy event, bringing together African energy leaders, global investors, and executives from the public and private sectors. Over four days, attendees will engage in intensive discussions on the future of Africa’s energy industry through interactive conferences, exhibitions, and networking opportunities. AEW aims to reshape the continent’s energy trajectory by focusing on collaboration, integration, and creating an enabling environment for growth and innovation.

This year’s theme, “Invest in African Energies: Energy Growth Through an Enabling Environment,” highlights the importance of supporting upstream, midstream, and downstream projects to create jobs, drive growth, and promote sustainable development. AEW also advocates for Africa’s position in the global energy transition, ensuring that the continent benefits from its oil and natural gas resources rather than relying on foreign aid.

ERCE offers a comprehensive range of energy services, including Reserves and Resources, Commercial Services, Expert Services, and Technical Studies. Our future energy focus includes Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE), Helium, Hydrogen, Geothermal, and Wind. Additionally, we provide Climate and Sustainability services, including GHG Emissions calculation and verification, Climate Disclosure, and Decarbonization strategies such as CCS, emissions reduction, and electrification.

Our multidisciplinary team of geoscientists, petrophysicists, reservoir engineers, cost and facilities engineers, and economists work collaboratively to deliver innovative solutions that meet your energy transition needs efficiently.

We invite attendees to connect with Johnny and Nicholas at AEW 2024 to discuss how ERCE’s expertise can help your company navigate the complexities of the energy landscape and unlock new opportunities. You can register for the event on the African Energy Week website.
