About

Founded in 2012, Africa GreenTec is a private headquartered in Frankfurt am Main, Germany specializing in Solar, Energy Storage.

Africa GreenTec is a social enterprise that combines ecological and social objectives with financial returns. Operating in four countries across Sub-Saharan Africa, the company specializes in deploying solar energy solutions, including solar pumps, SOLARBAKERY units, and Solartainers, tailored for rural electrification, agricultural productivity, and small business development. The company finances projects through crowdfunding via mezzanine capital instruments (profit participation rights with subordinated repayment terms and project loans). Africa GreenTec targets rural off-grid markets where demand for renewable energy, water access, and communication services remains high but underserved. The enterprise model emphasizes customer empowerment at scale, positioning customers as independent business partners rather than aid recipients.
