This is the best summary I could come up with:
AFSIA has released a new annual report on PV deployment in Africa.
“Unlike other regions of the world, there have been only a handful of large-scale projects, responding to government requests, that have been connected to the African power grid in 2023,” it added.
The association estimated that Africa passed the 16 GW threshold of cumulative installed PV capacity at the end of December.
South Africa accounted for nearly 3 GW of the total, primarily driven by C&I projects (75%).
“By quickly changing tack to focus on self-consumption, South Africans are showing the rest of the continent the way forward.
A path where alternative options exist and are financially viable in the event of failure of the national public utility,” said AFSIA.
