Globeleq Africa Limited

Compiled from public sources

Globeleq Africa Limited is a London-headquartered independent power producer, utility developer, and infrastructure strategic asset manager operating exclusively across the African continent. Founded in 2002 as a multi-regional power enterprise, the firm executed a complete strategic pivot in 2015 to focus solely on Sub-Saharan Africa following its dual acquisition by British International Investment (BII) and the Norwegian Investment Fund for Developing Countries (Norfund). Its primary corporate strategy centres on de-risking and underwriting large-scale power infrastructure across multiple technologies, including liquified natural gas (LNG), utility solar, wind generation, geothermal fields, and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). Globeleq functions as a vertically integrated general operator, handling the complete asset lifecycle from phase-one greenfield project finance to long-term facility engineering and electricity generation, and deploying hard-currency, inflation-linked power purchase agreements (PPAs) with sovereign national utilities and multinational commercial offtakers.
