Soldera Markets #6 | Tony Tiyou, Renewables in Africa CEO, on African Renewable Ecosystems
Soldera Markets is delighted to host Tony Tiyou, CEO of Renewables in Africa, to explore the growing African renewable energy landscape.
This Episode Covers:
ā The evolving African renewable energy certificates (RECs) marketā Growth patterns showing doubling volumes year-on-yearā How only 17 of 54 African countries currently participate in I-REC systemsā Pricing differences between African markets ($1-5/MWh) versus other regionsā The challenges of grid integration for large-scale renewable projects
Key Insights:
ā African I-REC volumes reaching 3.5 million MWh in 2024ā The untapped potential in distributed energy resourcesā How African renewables have lower default rates than comparable U.S. investmentsā The critical need for international capital in project developmentā Why solar makes economic sense beyond environmental benefits
Special Focus on African Energy Development:ā The economic impact of unreliable power on businessesā How solar adoption is growing rapidly without government subsidiesā The push for local manufacturing of renewable componentsā Regional integration through AfCFTA and pan-African energy initiativesā The continent's vast solar potential (currently just 2% of global capacity)
