Welcome to the Energy Conference
The Uganda Chamber of Energy & Minerals (UCEM), in partnership with the Ministry of Energy & Mineral Development (MEMD), is organizing the 10th Energy Convention (formerly the Oil & Gas Convention). This event aims to build on the successes of previous editions, address emerging sector challenges and foster continued development.
The Energy Convention will take place from April 29th to 30th, 2025, in Kampala, under the theme:
“Integrating Oil, Gas, and Renewable Energy for a Sustainable Future.”
Uganda stands at a critical juncture in energy development, leveraging its vast oil and gas resources while advancing renewable energy adoption. The energy sector remains central to achieving Uganda’s National Development Plan IV (2025–2030), addressing energy access, affordability, and sustainability.
In late 2023, Uganda unveiled its Energy Transition Plan during the COP28 Climate Summit in Dubai, marking a significant step toward a sustainable energy future. The plan outlines the country’s commitment to balancing its reliance on fossil fuels with the adoption of renewable energy sources, including solar, wind, and geothermal. It focuses on enhancing energy security, reducing emissions, and supporting economic growth while ensuring social and environmental sustainability.
Since its inception, the annual Energy Convention has served as a premier platform for stakeholders to exchange insights, foster collaborations, and shape policies that drive the sector forward.
The 10th Energy Convention in 2025 is a landmark event, expanding its focus beyond oil and gas to include critical energy sources such as solar, hydro, wind, and electricity, in line with global energy transition goals.
Integrating Oil & Gas, and Renewable Energy for a Sustainable Future.
In 2025, the Energy Conference returns bigger and better. The conference will provide a unique platform for stakeholders involved in the Oil & Gas, and Renewable Energy sector to engage in high-level discussions, networking, and business-to-business meetings, ultimately promoting opportunities in the sourcing and development of a Sustainable Future. This is a platform that brings together key decision-makers representing organizations and businesses that are fully dedicated to the development of the mining industry.
