Confidential Information Memorandum
Africa Green Energy Holdings
A 550 MW diversified renewable energy portfolio for South Africa — 300 MW solar PV, 150 MW onshore wind and 100 MW / 400 MWh of battery storage — underpinned by contracted offtake and built for the IRP 2025 and coal-retirement era, structured as an investment-grade ZAR 9.0-billion (~USD 480-million) opportunity for the International Finance Corporation, development-finance institutions and strategic equity investors.
South Africa faces a structural electricity deficit — years of load-shedding, an ageing coal fleet facing forced retirement, and the IRP 2025 and REIPPPP creating one of the largest renewable build programmes in the emerging world. Africa Green Energy Holdings captures this with a 550 MW diversified portfolio — 300 MW solar PV, 150 MW onshore wind and 100 MW / 400 MWh of battery storage — underpinned by contracted, largely inflation-linked offtake. A ZAR 9.0-billion (~USD 480-million) raise takes revenue to ZAR 3,520 million at a 65% EBITDA margin (steady-state 65–70%) and net income above ZAR 1.1 billion, delivering a 16–19% project IRR and a 20–24% equity IRR with development-finance alignment led by the IFC.
