Africa recorded its fastest-ever solar growth in 2025, with installations rising 54% to 4.5 GW, according to the latest Global Solar Council report covered by @ClimateHome The article highlights that up to $46 billion will be required by 2030 to meet the electrification targets of 29 African countries under the World Bank-backed Mission 300 initiative. Leaders from major solar minigrid companies, including Husk Power, have underscored the scale of investment needed to deliver that ambition. With projections suggesting Africa could install over 33 GW of solar capacity by 2029, the continent’s clean energy transition is accelerating across both utility-scale and distributed systems. At Husk, our focus remains clear: building scalable, reliable energy systems that expand access, strengthen productivity, and support long-term energy security across the Global South.

Powering rapid growth in rural Nigeria Dahlia Khalifa, Director of Central Africa and Nigeria at @IFC_org - International Finance Corporation, highlighted our impact in an interview with @GuardianNigeria. In Nigeria’s rural communities, energy access has become a catalyst for change. Khalifa cites how IFC’s investment in Husk has been instrumental in advancing the deployment of minigrids across Nigeria, with the ambition of delivering clean and reliable electricity to thousands of unserved and underserved communities. The future is clean energy because it is sustainable and cheaper. By replacing diesel generation, minigrids reduce energy costs drastically, freeing up resources for SMEs to operate longer hours, improve margins, and reinvest in growth. Aligned with our mission to deploy 1 GW of clean energy across Africa by 2030, we are currently raising a $400 million Series E round to power prosperity for 30 million people by the end of the decade.

Our VP of Business Development – West Africa, Olu, Aruike Olu recently represented Husk at the Canada–Nigeria Cleantech Day 2026 held in Abuja, Nigeria, featuring leading voices from the energy sector. The session, themed “Unlocking Nigeria’s Renewable Potential – Opportunities and Challenges for Canadian Technology Providers,” brought together industry leaders from the International Finance Corporation, African Development Bank, Energy Commission of Nigeria, Development Bank of Nigeria, Sterling Bank, and many others. Drawing on his six years of experience leading Husk’s operations in Nigeria, Olu emphasized the importance of energy independence in Africa to unlock the continent’s vast mineral wealth and human capital. Globally, energy sits at the center of economic growth. Yet today, approximately 600 million people in Africa still lack access to reliable electricity. The opportunity presented by renewable energy is therefore immense, provided that policy, investment, and institutional commitment align to accelerate its development. This conviction informs our next chapter: raising $400 million to deploy 1 GW of renewable energy assets across Africa by 2030. We are building scalable, grid-interoperable energy infrastructure that accelerates electrification while enabling stronger, more resilient regional power systems. #HuskPower #Nigeria #RenewableEnergy #EnergyAccess #CleanTech #CleanEnergy #EnergyIndependence #GlobalSouth

Our Chief Marketing Officer, William Brent, recently joined @ARISEtv to discuss the accelerating role of minigrids in Africa’s energy transition, drawing on insights from his newly released report "17 Actions for Minigrids to Catalyze Electrification in Sub-Saharan Africa". The signal is clear. Under Mission 300, 29 countries have signalled demand for 23 million minigrid connections, translating to electricity access for 116 million people. Minigrids are no longer peripheral. They are emerging as a core pillar of Africa’s rural electrification strategy. William explains why this momentum is building. Minigrids deploy faster than grid extensions, are capital-efficient and commercially viable, and reliably power households, enterprises, and agricultural activity, while easing pressure on national grids. Realising this opportunity will require $28 billion to $46 billion through blended finance models. Husk Power is positioned to lead this transition, with plans to raise $400 million to deploy 1 GW of assets in Africa by 2030, and an IPO targeted for 2029. Nigeria demonstrates what is possible when policy frameworks align with private-sector innovation, creating a credible pathway to electrify 80 to 90 million people who currently lack access to power.

What will it take to electrify 300 million people across Africa by 2030? Beyond capital and technology, it requires alignment across policy, finance, and large-scale execution. The 17 Actions for Minigrids to Catalyze Electrification in Sub-Saharan Africa provides a practical blueprint to support Mission 300, and we are proud to have endorsed it. The framework mirrors on-ground realities we see across the communities we serve: strong demand for reliable power, alongside systems that still need alignment to deliver it at scale. As highlighted in @MicrogridNews recent feature, the sector faces a clear challenge. Proven technologies and communities with demonstrated demand for reliable power exist, yet financing remains fragmented, regulatory frameworks lag deployment needs, and impact is often measured narrowly, without fully accounting for the businesses, schools, and health facilities that depend on reliable electricity. At Husk, our focus extends beyond building minigrids. We work to enable the economic and social infrastructure that allows electricity to support livelihoods, essential services, and long-term development. The pathway is clear. Accelerating progress now depends on collective action to scale solutions that are already working.

The sector is ready. Now it is time to move. Mission 300 has transformed the landscape, unlocking capital, reducing risk, and creating policy clarity. Our response is scaling to 1GW of distributed energy across Africa by 2030. As @AfricaMDA members, we are proud to stand alongside leading institutions in endorsing this Industry Position Paper. It outlines 17 concrete actions to move from ambition to execution for 115 million people. The private sector is ready. Capital and institutions must now match our pace. Because high income, low energy households will still be left behind without urgent, transformative action, and we are committed to ensuring that does not happen.

Q4 2025 marked an inflection point in Husk’s evolution, with the launch of a Distributed Energy Resources platform targeting 2 GW of clean energy deployment across the Global South by 2030. Husk’s DER platform is focused on three customers: communities, businesses and households. Isolated and grid-connected minigrids power entire communities, while commercial and industrial (C&I) and residential customers will be served by standalone rooftop and ground-mounted systems, on either a turnkey EPC basis or through power purchase agreements (PPA). The platform is powered by predictive and agentic AI, functioning as Husk’s central nervous system to enhance efficiency, reliability, and cost performance at scale. At the @AIFMarketPlace, we launched our $400 million Series E raise, receiving expressions of interest of up to $235 million across debt and equity. We were also honored with the AFSIA Award for Minigrid Project of the Year from the @AFSIA_Official (Africa Solar Industry Association), recognizing our work in Nigeria as a benchmark for Africa’s solar sector.
