A project aimed at accelerating access to clean, reliable and affordable energy in Africa through innovative solutions combining solar power, energy storage, artificial intelligence and microgrid-based models.

Project led by

PAM Africa (PAMAfrica Green Power Generation Company Limited), a Nigeria-based clean-tech company specialised in sustainable energy solutions.

Description of the project leader

PAM Africa

PAM Africa is a Nigerian clean-energy company focused on improving access to electricity across Africa through renewable, intelligent and integrated energy solutions. The company acts as an energy enabler, deploying innovative technologies to electrify communities, support productive uses of energy and drive socio-economic development in both urban and rural areas.

PAM Africa operates through several solution lines, including PAM Solar (EPC and O&M services for solar projects), as well as integrated solutions such as PAM-AI, Solar Battery Hubs, and the Net Zero Villages concept. Its activities are supported by expertise in engineering, energy asset management and technological innovation.

Project context

Many regions across Africa continue to face limited or unreliable access to electricity, constraining economic development and increasing dependence on costly and polluting fossil-fuel alternatives. PAM Africa positions itself as a key actor in the energy transition, combining solar technologies, battery storage and intelligent digital systems to enable faster, more inclusive and more sustainable electrification.

Project objectives

• Improve access to clean energy in underserved and off-grid areas through solar and storage solutions.
• Deploy innovative technologies, including intelligent energy management systems such as PAM-AI and adapted microgrid solutions.
• Increase energy efficiency and reduce costs through optimised asset management and smart energy use.
• Develop inclusive business models, such as pay-as-you-go or battery-leasing schemes, to improve affordability.
• Promote sustainability and climate impact, notably through initiatives like Net Zero Villages, which aim to offset more emissions than the communities generate.

Project activities

• Deployment of end-to-end solar energy solutions, including panels, batteries and associated services for commercial, industrial and institutional clients.
• Implementation of intelligent energy management technologies, such as PAM-AI, to optimise energy assets based on consumption behaviour.
• Development of Net Zero Villages, combining solar generation, community microgrids and local energy hubs to improve resilience.
• Roll-out of Solar Battery Hubs, offering battery rental and shared-use models to increase energy accessibility and affordability.
• Research, development and maintenance activities, including dedicated facilities focused on solar and battery technologies.

Project impacts

• Expanded access to clean and reliable electricity for households, businesses and rural communities.
• Reduction of CO₂ emissions through large-scale deployment of renewable energy solutions, particularly under the Net Zero Villages initiative.
• Creation of local employment opportunities in installation, operation and maintenance of energy systems.
• Lower energy costs for end users, enabled by flexible pricing models and optimised energy management.
• Increased resilience of energy systems, reducing vulnerability to supply disruptions and climate-related risks.
