The programme will provide in-depth and focused capacity building on methodologies for developing and implementing MEPS, as well as regulatory frameworks, testing protocols, and enforcement mechanisms. The content is organized into several modules covering both cross-cutting MEPS principles and product-specific technical guidelines for four priority appliances: lighting, electric motors, air conditioners, and refrigerators. The modules include practical case studies, exercises on market assessment tools, life-cycle cost analysis, label design, and compliance verification methodologies.

This comprehensive professional training course equips energy engineers, utility managers, regulators, and policymakers with the theoretical foundations, analytical tools, and practical skills needed to measure, model, and significantly reduce losses in power distribution networks.
Delivered across five structured modules, the course moves from foundational concepts of power systems and loss typology through advanced modeling methodologies and loss reduction strategies to enabling environments, implementation planning, and hands-on use of industry-standard simulation software (CYME). Participants leave with a concrete, context-specific action plan for loss reduction in their utilities or jurisdictions.

This course provides a structured, end-to-end understanding of how renewable energy projects are conceived, designed, financed, and implemented within the African context. Through blending technical, financial, and policy considerations, it equips professionals with the practical tools to drive Africa's energy transition. Through engaging in-person sessions, case studies, and scenario-based assessments, participants build the capacity to evaluate project bankability, interpret policy frameworks, and apply best practices in renewable energy planning and execution across diverse African markets.
