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).
The Africa Solar Industry Association (AFSIA) has published its Africa Solar Outlook for 2025, detailing remarkable growth in energy storage, with 2024 registering a 1,045% increase over 2023. AFSIA recorded annual capacity stalled at just around 50 MWh until 2022, which tripled in 2023 to over 150 MWh.
Boom times for energy storage have extended to the continent of Africa, with a 10-fold increase in installed storage supporting grids and renewable energy penetration.
