The South African–German Energy Partnership has commissioned the report Opportunities for Digitalisation in the South African Energy Sector, which identifies key opportunities for navigating the energy sector’s rapid shift toward decentralisation, digitalisation and decarbonisation. This webinar draws from the report’s insights, focusing on how Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) can unlock market flexibility, strengthen consumer engagement, and safeguard grid reliability. The session will unpack AMI’s role in a digital energy system, the critical importance of cybersecurity, and best practices for reliable implementation. Participants will gain practical lessons on how to get AMI right — balancing innovation with security and unlocking opportunities for a more resilient and sustainable energy future. This is the first in a two-part series of webinars designed to disseminate the report’s findings and explore actionable opportunities for the energy sector.

Digitalisation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are reshaping how energy assets are managed. Building on insights from the South African–German Energy Partnership report Opportunities for Digitalisation in the South African Energy Sector, which highlights opportunities for the sector, this webinar explores how digital tools and artificial intelligence can transform asset management in South Africa. The session will show how smarter use of data can optimise assets, enhance decision-making, and strengthen energy security. Participants will learn how digital infrastructure and AI can be integrated into asset management practices to enhance resilience and unlock opportunities across the energy value chain. This is the second in a series of webinars designed to disseminate the report’s findings and explore actionable opportunities for the energy sector.
