What We Do | Hybrid Renewable Solutions for African Markets

Developing the next generation of renewable projects for Africa

We develop world-class renewable energy projects, unlocking Africa’s untapped potential, powering African industry in partnership with local players.

Reimagining how Africa's clean energy interacts with the grid

Africa is poised to leapfrog traditional power grid limitations. At Modaso, we are leveraging falling renewable costs with advances in battery storage to create a new generation of hybrid renewable projects in the continent’s ‘renewable hot spots’. By integrating variable renewables, we deliver reliable, round-the-clock baseload power without compromising grid stability.

At Modaso we are designing for high capacity, stable and low cost power generation, 24hrs a day,
by developing hybrid projects that combine wind, solar and battery.

Three technologies.
Bespoke solutions

We develop solutions that best meet demand and local context. We are resource-adaptable and not limited to one model or energy type.

Seizing a pivotal moment for renewables

The cost of renewable energy (see chart) has declined by over 70% in the last 10 years due to capacity increases and technology optimisation. There has never been a better time to invest in large scale renewable power projects, not only to reduce emissions but to boost economic growth.

Untapped potential

Africa boasts an unlimited potential of solar capacity (10 TW), and abundant hydro (350 GW) and wind (110 GW) capacity. IRENA (International Renewable Energy Agency) estimates that the continent’s renewable energy potential is over 1,000 times larger than projected demand by 2040. Africa boasts an unlimited potential of solar capacity (10 TW), and abundant hydro (350 GW) and wind (110 GW) capacity.

Africa’s clean energy future promises low cost, reliable power that will drive industrial progress and bring with it significant economic and social benefits.

Value for all

Collaboration and engagement are at the heart of our approach,  from project design to community impact.

Designed with offtakers and bankability in mind

We secure Power Purchase Agreements and P2X, and match project size and technology to local energy needs and geography, optimising investment attractiveness. We ensure regulatory requirements are met and mitigate risks.

OEM
collaboration

We partner with leading OEMs (original equipment manufacturers), ensuring credibility, reliability, development and technical support. 

Partnership with local players and communities

We partner with local players, leveraging local know how. We engage with local communities, ensuring they benefit fairly and equitably from projects developed on their land.

Partnership at the core

Renewable energy projects generate more than just clean power. Each project is an engine of local economic growth, delivering returns through:

Tax revenue to national and local government

Community financial security that can be used to boost education, healthcare and local infrastructure

Reliable power, strengthening industry and fueling
economic growth
