The potential for solar in sub-Saharan Africa is immense. IRENA estimates the region could generate up to 10 terawatts (TW) of solar power. With adoption rates expected to exceed 20 percent annually through 2025, as projected by the International Energy Agency (IEA), solar could reshape Africa’s energy landscape.
Currently, over 1,000 solar installations are operational, and more than 7,600 projects are in various stages of development. Significant recent investments underscore solar’s expanding footprint. South Africa launched a groundbreaking 540 MW solar PV project with 1,140 MWh of battery storage in 2021, awarded to Norway’s Scatec.
In practical terms, solar power is already transforming lives across Sub-Saharan Africa. For example, in rural Kenya, solar-powered mini-grids provide households and small businesses with reliable electricity, supporting economic activities and improving quality of life.
Sub-Saharan Africa’s solar expansion is driven by several factors. The cost of solar panels has dropped by roughly 70% from 2010 to 2020, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), making solar technology increasingly affordable.
Our solar PV systems and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
