Infra Futura

What Infra Futura does

Infra Futura is a privately-held solar energy solutions provider focused on commercial, industrial, healthcare, and residential clients across sub-Saharan Africa. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Accra, Ghana, with a parent holding company (Infra Futura Group AB) established in Stockholm, Sweden in February 2024 following a strategic separation from Stella Futura AB, the company delivers end-to-end solar PV systems with battery energy storage solutions (BESS). Its core services span Energy Audits & Advisory, Project Feasibility & Evaluation, Installation & Deployment, Operations & Maintenance, and Structured Financing & Leasing Contracts. The core technology is grid-tied and hybrid solar PV combined with lithium-ion BESS, supplied through technology partnerships with vendors such as Tesvolt, Huawei, Jinko Solar, SMA, and Azelio.

The business model combines traditional solar EPC revenue (one-time project revenue from system installation) with a Solar-as-a-Service subscription offering and PPA/lease structures designed to remove the upfront capital barrier for clients. Financing is blended across DRECs (Distributed Renewable Energy Certificates) via Power Trust, grants from Shell Foundation, UNEP, and USAID/Power Africa, and equity from the Trinity Impact Program, with repayments in local currency. Go-to-market is B2B and B2G enterprise field sales, anchored by the SAHS Initiative for healthcare facility electrification through a partnership with the Christian Health Association of Ghana (374 facilities). The company also operates the Women on the Roofs gender equity program to build a pipeline of trained female solar installers.

Infra Futura has executed projects across Ghana, Somalia, and Nigeria with named clients including Anglogold Ashanti (336 kWp), Miniplast (782 kWp), Ghana Nuts (600 kWp), Galkayo Hospital (75 kWp + 86 kWh BESS), Holy Family Hospital (117.7 kWp), St. Mary's Hospital (104 kWp), CSIR Water Research Institute (105 kWp + 10.5 kWh), Gregory University (132 kWp), and UNICEF offices in Mogadishu (103 kWp). Cumulative installed PV capacity is approximately 2,600 kWp, with reported annual CO2 savings of 2,500 tonnes and 130+ jobs created across operations.

Emerging players

• Zola Electric: PAYGO solar + battery provider for residential and commercial customers across Tanzania, Nigeria, and other African markets. Overlapping product offering and financing approach with Infra Futura's solar-as-a-service.
• BBOXX: UK-headquartered PAYG solar energy company operating across East and West Africa. Comparable in distributed solar + storage model, focused on smaller-scale and residential customers.

Direct peers

• PowerGen Renewable Energy: Pan-African distributed renewable energy company delivering solar mini-grids and rooftop systems across East and West Africa. Highly comparable in customer segments (healthcare, C&I) and EPC-plus-finance model.
• CrossBoundary Energy: Pan-African commercial and industrial solar developer (and storage) supplying C&I clients with PPA-based models across sub-Saharan Africa. Closest direct peer to Infra Futura in business model and customer profile.
• SolarGen Technologies: Energy solutions provider with operations in Kenya/Somalia, listed as Infra Futura's partner in East Africa. Highly comparable footprint and storage-inclusive offering.
• Empower New Energy: Norwegian project financier and developer of solar PV in West Sub-Saharan Africa, already partnered with Infra Futura. Comparable in customer base (C&I / health) and financing-led go-to-market.

Broad incumbents

• M-KOPA: Kenya-based PAYG solar platform and one of the largest distributed solar providers in Africa. Operates a financing-led model comparable in spirit but focused on residential/small-business segments.
• d.light: Large global off-grid solar company with strong African distribution and PAYG financing for residential and small commercial customers. Adjacent but broader-portfolio player relative to Infra Futura's C&I/healthcare focus.
• Sun King (formerly Greenlight Planet): Global PAYG solar manufacturer and distributor with large African presence. Indirect peer — overlapping customer base and financing approach but residential-skewed vs Infra Futura's C&I/healthcare focus.
• ENGIE Energy Access: Affordable-energy subsidiary of ENGIE providing solar and clean cooking solutions across Africa. Overlaps with Infra Futura in distributed solar + storage, but operates at far greater scale and capital depth.
