About
Building Africa's Next Generation of Renewable Energy Projects
Solatriq Energy develops, structures and delivers utility-scale renewable energy projects across Africa, starting with an advanced project pipeline in Zambia.
Our Story
Built to Develop Bankable Energy Projects
Solatriq Energy was established to turn Africa's growing demand for reliable power into investable renewable energy projects. We originate opportunities, secure the fundamentals and structure projects for financing, construction and long-term operation. Our initial portfolio is being developed in Zambia, with a broader ambition across selected African markets.
Clear Development Focus
We develop utility-scale renewable energy projects with a clear path from origination to financial close, construction and operation.
African Market Focus
We pursue opportunities where power demand, industrial growth and renewable resources create a strong case for new generation.
Local Execution
We combine on-the-ground market knowledge with international technical, financial and development standards.
Built for Scale
Our project-by-project approach creates a repeatable development platform capable of expanding across multiple African markets.
What We Bring
More Than Project Origination
We focus on removing the barriers that prevent good energy opportunities from becoming financeable projects. Our role is to bring the critical pieces together early, creating projects that investors, lenders and delivery partners can evaluate with confidence.
Development Before Capital
We advance land, permitting, grid, offtake and technical work before seeking major construction capital.
Bankability from the Start
Commercial and technical decisions are made with financing requirements in mind, not added as an afterthought.
Local Access, International Standards
Local market knowledge is combined with the governance, technical discipline and reporting expected by institutional partners.
Aligned Partnerships
We work with investors, lenders, EPC contractors, governments and communities to create projects where interests are aligned for the long term.
How We Work
How We Build Investable Projects
Originate with Discipline
We prioritise opportunities with credible demand, viable grid access, suitable land and a clear commercial case.
De-Risk Early
Key development risks are addressed before significant capital is committed, including land, permitting, grid, environmental and offtake requirements.
Structure for Finance
Projects are developed with the requirements of equity investors, DFIs and commercial lenders considered from the outset.
Build Local Value
We engage local stakeholders and seek to create lasting economic value through employment, skills, procurement and infrastructure.
Our First Market
Zambia: The Foundation of Our Growth
Zambia provides Solatriq with a strong starting point for building a scalable African renewable energy platform. Growing electricity demand, mining and industrial activity, strong renewable resources and increasing private-sector participation create a compelling environment for new generation capacity.
Our initial projects establish the development experience, partnerships and operating platform from which we intend to pursue opportunities in selected African markets.
Zambia's electricity supply consistently falls short of demand, with load shedding affecting industry and households.
Government policy actively supports private sector participation in power generation through competitive procurement.
Zambia's solar resource is among the strongest in the region, supporting high capacity factors for utility-scale projects.
Development Process
From Opportunity to Operating Asset
Site Identification
Solar resource mapping, grid proximity analysis and land tenure review.
Feasibility
Technical, environmental and financial feasibility studies.
Permitting
Environmental and social impact assessment, grid connection application and regulatory approvals.
Project Finance
Structuring for DFI and commercial lender requirements. Power purchase agreement negotiation.
Construction
EPC procurement, construction management and commissioning.
Operations
Long-term asset management and performance monitoring.
Our Ambition
500 MW by 2030
Our ambition is to build a diversified portfolio of utility-scale renewable energy projects across Africa, beginning with our initial pipeline in Zambia.
We are building the platform deliberately: one bankable project, one strong partnership and one market at a time.
Build With Us
We are building long-term relationships with investors, lenders, DFIs, EPC partners, technology providers and strategic sponsors who share our ambition for Africa's energy future.
