What Radiance does

Radiance is a privately held Sudanese solar energy company founded in 2022 and headquartered in Khartoum. The company operates as an end-to-end solar engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) provider for the Sudanese market, designing, procuring, installing, and commissioning photovoltaic systems that range from 100 W residential kits to 100 kW commercial mini-grids, in off-grid, grid-tied, and hybrid configurations with battery storage. Its technical portfolio emphasizes hybrid systems integrating solar PV, battery storage, and optional diesel generator or grid backup, with documented specialization in medical-grade power quality for hospitals and clinics, and solar water-pumping systems (0.5-15 kW) for agricultural users. Select components include 550 W monocrystalline panels, 10-14 kW three-phase hybrid inverters, 800 W-2 kW microinverters, and 3-5 kW off-grid inverters, sourced from tier-1 manufacturers and sold both through direct EPC contracts and an e-commerce storefront.

Radiance generates revenue through three streams: one-time EPC project fees (institutional and humanitarian solarization contracts), hardware sales through its online shop, and recurring maintenance and remote-monitoring subscriptions that have yielded a documented <1.7% system downtime rate across more than 40 installed sites totaling over 1.2 MW of capacity. Its go-to-market is sales-led for institutional and humanitarian clients (custom technical proposals for hospitals, schools, agricultural operations, and commercial buildings) and self-serve for individual product purchases, with deployment capacity of 100 kW per month supported by ISO 9001-certified processes.

The company is led by Executive Director Ghazi Tawfig, Partner Amjad Osman, and Partner Anas Mohamed, and is backed by partnerships with UNDP Sudan, a Danish investment fund, and Dutch development bank FMO, alongside operational alliances with MEMA Solar, MIMAH Solar, and several Sudanese NGOs. In February 2026, Radiance raised $100 million from the Danish fund and FMO to scale renewable energy deployment across Sudan. The company operates exclusively within Sudan and has not expanded into adjacent geographies.
