Solar energy is becoming increasingly important across Africa as the continent seeks to harness its abundant natural resources to meet growing energy demands.
Many of our clients frequently seek insights into Africa’s solar industry. In a recent project, we leveraged data and insights from the ABiQ platform, which monitors over $7 trillion worth of projects across Africa and the Middle East. We identified that approximately 260 large, utility-scale solar projects are either planned or already underway on the African continent. Interestingly, about half of these projects are already under construction, with the remaining ones in various stages of development. South Africa is leading with over 22.35% of solar project share.
Our extensive research and insights help clients identify strategic markets and connect with key players for smoother market entry. At africon, we provide tailored insights and strategies to help companies succeed in Africa’s solar sector.
