The latest AFSIA report sheds light on the evolving solar market landscape in Africa in 2024. The Commercial and Industrial (C&I) segment continues its upward trajectory with 6 GW of captive projects and 1.7 GW of wheeling projects announced, showcasing a 15% growth in the 3-year pipeline. Large-scale solar projects, which faced challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, have made a remarkable recovery, accounting for 72% of newly installed capacity and dominating the future development pipeline with 81 GW of planned capacity. Green hydrogen projects, although slowing down in 2024 with 1,180 MW of new announcements, are focusing on operationalizing existing projects like the modular ammonia system in Kenya powered by solar and battery storage. The storage sector has seen exponential growth, with capacity increasing tenfold in 2024, driven by technological advancements and cost reductions. With 18 GWh of storage projects in the pipeline, the sector is poised to play a crucial role in meeting Africa's energy demands.
