While the spread of solar energy across Africa is encouraging, a significant concentration of capacity persists. In 2024, 78 per cent of all new installations were concentrated in just two countries — South Africa and Egypt.
As solar technology continues to evolve and costs decline, Africa’s journey toward a brighter, solar-powered future is poised to accelerate, illuminating millions of lives across the continent. Discover how Africa is transforming its energy landscape by harnessing solar power.
Although this represents a step forward, it underscores the widening gap between Africa and other regions in harnessing solar energy. Structural challenges such as limited financing, regulatory barriers and infrastructure constraints continue to impede the continent’s ability to fully unlock its solar potential.
South Africa remained the leader, adding 1,235 MWp, followed by Egypt with 707 MWp. Meanwhile, countries such as Zambia (74.8 MWp), Nigeria (63.5 MWp) and Angola (53.8 MWp) also demonstrated noteworthy progress. While the spread of solar energy across Africa is encouraging, a significant concentration of capacity persists.
