Algeria Electricity & Water Expo

Algeria Electricity & Water Expo (AEW Expo) is the country’s premier event dedicated to the electricity and water sectors. As the largest industry exhibition of the year, it serves as a vital platform for showcasing cutting-edge technologies, innovations, and solutions related to the generation, distribution, and management of electricity and water. With Algeria's growing demand for electricity—growing by 2-4% annually—the need for robust infrastructure is more pressing than ever. To keep up with this rising demand, the country must add 1,500 MW of new generating capacity each year, along with the necessary infrastructure like power transmission lines and substations.

The AEW Expo plays a crucial role in supporting these efforts by bringing together global industry leaders, government officials, and key stakeholders. Since its inception, the event has become a focal point for discussions on how to address Algeria’s energy challenges and how to implement sustainable solutions to meet the nation’s increasing needs. The exhibition covers a wide range of topics, including renewable energy, energy efficiency, smart grids, water treatment, and infrastructure development, offering both local and international exhibitors a chance to present their latest innovations to a highly engaged audience.

The energy reforms that began in 2002 marked a significant turning point for Algeria’s electricity sector. These reforms have opened the door to increased private sector involvement and foreign investment. As a result, dozens of foreign and private companies now compete for independent energy projects in various parts of Algeria. The AEW Expo has become an essential platform for these companies to connect with potential partners, explore new opportunities, and navigate the evolving regulatory landscape in Algeria's energy sector.

For exhibitors and attendees alike, the AEW Expo is not only an opportunity to showcase the latest technologies but also a chance to shape the future of the electricity and water industries in Algeria. With its focus on sustainable energy solutions and modern infrastructure development, the event is an important milestone in the country’s efforts to modernize its energy sector and meet the demands of an expanding economy.
