What PASH does
PASH Global (legal entity: PASH Advisory LLP, UK; operating brand: Pan-African Soleil Holdings) is a London-headquartered clean energy project developer and impact investor majority-owned by Trafigura Group, founded in 2012 by Kofi Owusu-Bempah and Vine Mwense. The company develops, finances, builds, operates, and maintains utility- and distributed-scale renewable energy assets — including solar PV, wind, hydroelectric, biomass, energy storage (BESS), green hydrogen, and hybrid power systems — across emerging markets in Africa, the Caribbean, Latin America, and Southern Europe. PASH's technology stack centers on in-house engineering for challenging environments, notably hurricane-resistant solar farm design (170 mph-rated installations in Puerto Rico) and hybrid PV-diesel system optimization, alongside a consumer-facing All-in-One Home Energy Storage System.
PASH operates a multi-pronged business model combining long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) under BOOT and 25-year concession structures (e.g., St. Helena, Mali Kita), fixed-price EPC contracts for commercial and industrial clients (Fresenius Kabi, Engen Ghana, SNC Technical, Puma Energy), strategic 50/50 joint ventures with local developers (Tswana Renewables, RIPLE/NSIA, ERIH Holdings, Akuo Energy), and equity investments in project SPVs. Revenue mechanics span energy sales and capacity payments from owned assets, EPC construction fees, asset-management-style fees on JV portfolios, and capital appreciation on exited stakes. The company serves three primary segments: governments and sovereign utilities (Egypt, St. Helena, Tanzania), commercial and industrial enterprises (fuel retailers, pharmaceutical, textile, agro-processing), and local developers seeking capital and technical expertise.
Trafigura's majority backing underwrites a committed £1 billion over 5 years and provides access to commodity-trading infrastructure, while a senior advisory board (drawn from CDC Group, Carlyle, BP, African Development Bank, and Conduit Ventures) augments execution capability. The platform spans 15+ countries, with disclosed project capacities ranging from sub-MWp distributed installations to GW-scale hydrogen and ammonia pipelines under MoU.
