A practical, English-speaking B2B network platform with a focus on the following topics:
The OFF-GRID Expo + Conference (OEC for short) in Augsburg is the only, neutral congress trade fair in Europe for technologies for off-grid energy supply and use. The practice-oriented english-language format including a conference, trade fair and the community network happening takes place every 2 years.
In 2025, the event will be under the patronage of Thorsten Glauber, Bavarian State Minister for the Environment and Consumer Protection, for the first time. Kenya is the partner country of the OFF-GRID Expo + Conference 2025. As a pioneer in off-grid solutions, particularly in the areas of renewable energy and sustainable development, Kenya is an ideal representative of the OFF-GRID industry.
With its know-how transfer, the OEC directly contributes to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In addition to affordable and clean energy (SDG 7) and access to clean drinking water (SDG 6), the goals of economic growth (SDG 8), sustainable consumption (SDG 12) and climate protection (SDG 13) are on the agenda.
Launched as a workshop in 2011, the event steadily attracted more participants and sparked increasing enthusiasm, including among exhibitors and event partners. Since 2020, the Alliance for Rural Electrification has been the official conference partner of the Off-Grid Expo+Conference.
