Africa’s off-grid solar market offers vast potential but the development of mini and micro-grid systems is often hindered by inadequate business models, themselves hampered by calculation of electricity tariffs. Ethiopia is trying to find a solution. Hizkyas Dufera, senior adviser to Ethiopia’s Ministry of Water, Irrigation and Energy, told the Africa Energy Forum held in Lisbon this summer the government of the east African nation is working on a methodology for the calculation of mini grid electricity tariffs. The goal, said Dufera, was to make the development of mini-grids in Ethiopia financially viable. If the ministry establishes a methodology, private investors could apply it to their own projects, said the adviser. The government would also be able to check investor calculations and, should they involve high tariffs, the authorities in Addis Ababa would consider subsidizing investors, for example by helping with capital expenditure to provide a measure of certainty for project backers. Around 45% of the Ethiopian population has access to electricity and the government wants universal access by 2025. To achieve that, the nation last year launched the Ethiopian Electrification Program, which envisages providing 65% of its people with power from the grid and the balance from off-grid installations. Ethiopia is embracing solar by running two rounds of the World Bank’s Scaling Solar program with the aim of procuring 750 MW of PV power generation capacity. The nation’s electricity sector faces issues common to African power markets including low electricity prices that do not reflect the real cost of electricity procurement and inefficient mechanisms for the collection of electricity bill payments. Such issues affect the electricity off-taker’s financial performance and are particularly important given Ethiopia wants to unbundle the generation, transmission and distribution operations of its electricity sector.

Africa-focused independent power producer Globeleq has acquired a 48.3% stake in a 25-MWp solar plant within the Benban Solar Park complex in Egypt. The stake was purchased from Enerray, Enerray Global Solar Opportunities, and Desert Technologies, with local firm GILA Altawakol Electric remaining a co-shareholder and operations contractor. The Winnergy solar farm, launched in 2019 near Aswan, generates 58 GWh of clean electricity annually for the Egyptian Electricity and Transmission Company under a 25-year power purchase agreement.The project was developed as part of Egypt's Feed-in-Tariff program and financed by the IFC, BII, AIIB, and Europe Arab Bank. Globeleq, controlled by British International Investment with Norfund as a minority shareholder, has been investing in Egypt for two decades. The Winnergy plant is adjacent to Globeleq's 66-MWp ARC solar facility, further solidifying the company's presence in the Egyptian renewable energy sector.
