NEISA 2026 marked a transition from nuclear ambition to implementation-focused action across Africa’s energy landscape.
The Summit positioned nuclear energy not as a future possibility, but as a strategic infrastructure solution for Africa’s industrial growth, energy security, digital expansion, and long-term economic transformation.
Key signal: Africa is no longer debating whether nuclear energy has a role to play the continent is now building the financing models, partnerships, regulatory frameworks, workforce capacity, and regional cooperation needed to deploy nuclear energy at scale.
"For Africa, energy is not simply a development issue. It is the foundation of industrial growth and competitiveness. Countries that cannot meet this demand will struggle to compete. The demographic shift can become one of the greatest economic advantages of this century, if we prepare for it."
"Africa's economic transformation depends fundamentally on reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy systems. Nuclear energy should not be viewed as competing with renewable energy, but rather as complementing broader efforts to build resilient energy systems. This platform provides an important opportunity for Africa to move from ambition to implementation."
"There are moments in the life of a continent when we are no longer content to observe moments when we have to decide. The African nuclear will not be an imported nuclear. It will be a nuclear thought, operated and governed by Africans, at the service of Africans."
"The elements are finally aligning for us to move from the declaratory. Speeches can be very nice, but what we need is a reality that changes the lives of people out there. The finance is there. And nuclear energy can be a part of that reality for Africa."
"There will be no African digital sovereignty without African energy sovereignty. Africa must not simply aspire to have a seat at the table Africa must help shape the table itself. Without nuclear energy as part of the solution, sustainable large-scale energy abundance and sovereignty will remain out of reach."
Following the successful convening of NEISA 2026 in Kigali, the conversation now continues in Lomé, Togo, as NEISA 2027 prepares to bring together Africa’s nuclear energy ecosystem for the next phase of collaboration, investment, and implementation.
NEISA 2027 will build on the momentum generated across the continent advancing strategic partnerships, financing pathways, workforce development, regional cooperation, and scalable nuclear deployment solutions that support Africa’s long-term industrial and energy ambitions.
Watch the official NEISA 2027 announcement and join us in Togo as Africa continues shaping its clean energy future.
NEISA 2027 is an invitation only summit designed to convene a carefully curated group of leaders, decision-makers, and practitioners across Africa's nuclear energy ecosystem.
Invitations are issued to participants whose roles, expertise, and institutional mandates are directly relevant to the Summit's strategic pillars, including policy, regulation, finance, technology, industry, skills development, and public trust.
