As noted by AFSIA Solar, one of the most notable solar-plus-storage developments in Africa is Norway-based independent power producer (IPP) Scatec’s 225MW/1,140MWh Kenhardt project in South Africa. The site started operation in late 2023 (pictured above).
Africa is richly endowed with energy resources. Reserves of coal, natural gas and oil represent 3.6 per cent, 7.5 per cent and 7.6 per cent of global reserves, respectively; Sub-Saharan Africa has undiscovered, but technically recoverable, energy resources estimated at about 115.34 billion barrels of oil and 21.05 trillion cubic meters of gas.
Africa possesses an abundance of regionally dispersed renewable resources, including 10 TW of solar capacity, 350 GW of hydropower potential, 110 GW of wind energy potential, and 15 GW of geothermal energy potential .

Past and future energy investment in Africa (2016–2030) . While renewable energy investments are gaining momentum, fossil fuels still attract substantial funding, with international companies spending over USD 5.1 billion on fossil fuel exploration in Africa in 2022 .
To effectively tackle these challenges, it is imperative to invest in the energy sector in Africa. Africa will require an annual energy expenditure of roughly $25 billion by 2030 to carry out the aforementioned energy improvements, according to estimates provided by the IEA .
