CESI has been featured in ESI Africa, one of the leading media platforms covering the power, energy and water sectors across the African continent, with an in-depth analysis of the key trends shaping the future of Africa’s electricity networks.
In the article, Simone Pasquini, Area Manager Africa at CESI Consulting, highlights how African power systems are undergoing a profound transformation driven by rapid urbanization, economic growth, electrification programs, and the increasing deployment of renewable energy sources.
Drawing on CESI’s experience across multiple countries, the contribution explores the growing importance of integrated power system planning, regional interconnections and digital grid technologies in enabling reliable, resilient and sustainable electricity networks. The article also examines how utilities and public institutions are balancing long-term infrastructure development with the need to modernize existing assets and operations.
Among the key themes discussed are the integration of renewable energy, the expansion of cross-border electricity interconnections, the adoption of advanced control centers and SCADA/EMS technologies, and the increasing focus on climate resilience and capacity building. These elements are becoming essential to support Africa’s energy transition and growing electricity demand.
The feature reinforces CESI’s role as a trusted partner for utilities, governments, regulators and international stakeholders, supporting the development of future-ready power systems that can accelerate economic growth and improve energy access across the continent.
