About the Open Source in Energy Access Symposium

Following our successful inaugural Open Source in Energy Access Symposium  (OSEAS 2024), EnAccess and World Resources Institute are excited to announce that the 2025 edition of the Open Source in Energy Access Symposium (OSEAS) will take place June 11-13, 2025 in Nairobi, Kenya.

OSEAS 2025 will once again unite global policymakers, entrepreneurs, industry leaders, tech innovators and the Open Source Community to explore challenges, seize opportunities and create synergies. Based on your valued feedback, we’ve enhanced this year’s program with:

• Expanded working group sessions

• Dedicated poster exhibition space

• Product fair

• A donor roundtable

• An improved hackathon experience

• Site visit

Open Source technology and tools have been transforming the Energy Access landscape - enhancing interoperability, boosting cost efficiency, and ensuring high quality. However, it’s only recently that their full potential has started to shine through. By accelerating collaboration and dialogue, OSEAS 2025 aims to push us closer to universal energy access.
