Honorable Akwasi Oppong-Fosu
Minister of Environment, Science Technology and Innovation
Ghana is at the dawn of a new era. Renewable
energy technologies enable us to produce
energy from materials that are regenerative
and normally would be considered as waste
that cause harm to the environment. This
exhibition and conference will help Ghana
and Africa realize alternatives to solving its
environmental issues and bring nature back
to its original ecological cycle.
Hence, striving to achieve a healthy
environment, given that the advent of climate
change and global warming is paramount, the
employment of clean energy technologies is
crucial to securing Ghana’s future.
The WACEE 15 is an important trade show in
this direction. Therefore, we as the Ministry
of Environment, Science, Technology and
Innovation will support any initiative that
comes out of this trade show.
Honorable Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah
Minister of Energy and Petroleum
Ghana’s rapid economic growth has triggered
the need for supporting energy infrastructure
such as Renewable Energy technologies. As
a result, the Government of Ghana has set
structures in place such as the Renewable
Energy Act, to promote the exploration of
clean energy and environmental resources for
the benefit of its populace.
Ghana is an exporter of energy to countries
in the West African sub-region, and we are
pleased that the WACEE serves as a platform
for power generators, technology suppliers,
investor, industry experts and political and
economic decision makers from the West
African sub-region and beyond.
To develop and facilitate the formulation
of energy sector policies is the ministries
task and conferences such as WACEE serve
as platform for policy impact assessment.
Therefore, we urge the Delegation of German
Industry and Commerce in Ghana to continue
organizing such a wonderful event, and we
assure our full commitment and support for
the upcoming WACEE 15.
Sustainably harnessing Ghana’s resources
to enhance national access to power is our
primary concern as the Ministry of Energy.
Hence, all initiatives such as the West
African Clean Energy and Environment
Conference (WACEE) that seek to promote the
development of Ghana’s Renewable Energy
and Environment sector are welcome.

Honorable Julius Debrah
Minister of Local Government and Rural
Development
A major concern for the Ministry of local
Government and Rural development is waste
and liquid waste management and treatment.
Environmental disasters and disease occur
when the requisite methods are not used in
the proper disposal of waste.
water and energy problems. Waste to energy
and source separation is on of the options, the
Ministry intends to explore.
The 3rd West African Clean Energy &
Environment Exhibition & Conference 2015
is going to focus on waste management and
water treatment, which will unearth practical
solutions to solve some of our waste and rural
I believe this years discussions will go a long
way to helping curb the waste problems facing
our local governments and Rural areas in
Ghana.
Hence, we express our gratitude to the
organization of WACEE `15.
Ambassador Ruediger John
German Embassy Accra
West Africa can look back on an impressive
development over the last years. This is not
least reflected in high growth rates of energy
consumption.
German Industry and Commerce (AHK) in
Accra and the German trade show specialists
fairtrade organize the third WACEE this year.
WACEE is an international exhibition and
conference specializing in the balanced
development of the energy and environmental
sector. In the course of a few years, WACEE
has become a true success-story – 51
exhibitors coming from 8 countries present
their products and services this year. I look
particularly forward to visiting the official
“made in Germany”- pavilion with 20 German
exhibitors in addition to an information stand.
Especially emerging markets with a fastmoving industrialization process need
solutions for sustainable growth in order to
save the legacy for future generations. Ghana
has therefore decided to seek for answers
to these challenges in renewable energy
sources, especially wind and solar.
German businesses and institutions can help
with that, because they are global market
leaders. We are glad that the Delegation of
I would be glad to meet you there!

Ambassador Frédéric Clavier
French Embassy Accra
I congratulate and acknowledge the organizers
of this third edition of the “West African
Clean Energy and Environment Exhibition”
for the choice of topics selected: energetic
efficacy, electric engineering, environmental
technologies, treatment and recycling of solid
wastes such as water treatment are indeed
actual and important topics in Ghana.
The water sector and sanitation is also
another important sector in which the AFD
has financed five projects recently (3 in the
Central Region, 1 in the Easter Region and 1
in the Northern Region) for a total of 45,8 M€.
The agency has also intervened in support
for Ghana Water Company Limited through
a non-sovereign loan. In rural areas, a water
supply and sanitation project for small towns
and pre-urban areas has been funded by
the AFD (Brong Ahafo region, March 2008 to
December 2012).
The water treatment such as solid wastes
represents a great challenge in Accra and in
various African agglomerations as well. The
development of “clean” energies, renewable
(solar, biomass) is also a challenge. Some
of our companies have already harnessed to
respond.
These few projects are still on the “spotlights”
for the country needs which remains very
important in these areas. Henceforward,
there is no doubt that the private sector and
companies should be encouraged to play a
key role in these areas either through public
service concessions or under the “public
private partnership” (PPP). I fully measure
it through the French companies I meet
according to their missions in Ghana.
Indeed, the traditional door interventions
remain crucial in most of these sectors.
The French Agency for development have
therefore made energy one of its key areas
in Ghana. Among its recent intervention, I
think of the 4 turbines rehabilitation at the
Kpong barrage (50M€), the Ghana-Burkina
Faso electric interconnection and a 330 KV
Kumasi-Bolgatanga line creation through
a non-sovereign loan of 141 M€ at Gridco
(electric transmission operator) whose tender
is in process, as well as Proparco participation
in the consortium of the Takoradi 2 central
electric (11,2M€).
In this respect, the new legislative framework
under discussion, will be a very important
direction of the business community on areas
still not exposed to international competition.
I wish you a very good exhibition and
congratulate the organizers for their initiative.
