Wind Power Data Insights Report 2010–25

07 Oct 2021

Wind Power Data Insights Report 2010-25, uses tables and graphics to illustrate the current status and trajectory of Africa’s rapidly expanding wind power sector.

The data shows that more than 11GW of on-grid wind capacity is expected online before the end of 2025.

Outside of South Africa and Egypt, Morocco, Ethiopia and Kenya are major consumers of wind generation. According to the current project pipeline, wind power’s expansion across the continent will be contained to these major markets up to 2025.

The report, based on underlying aggregate data from African Energy Live Data, our proprietary database of more than 6,700 power projects and plants, offers an essential grounding for any investor, lender or developer charting a strategy in this dynamic market.

The excel format of the report provides incisive read-outs to support strategic decision-making, plus enables users to set their own parameters and to develop and test conclusions within their own analytical frameworks.

Key features

Customisable excel with 408 tables across on-grid, off-grid and embedded projects
Data on the trend of installed wind power capacity (MW) from now until 2025, based on the actual project development pipeline rather than estimates.
Comprehensive information on installed wind power capacity – compared with other fuel types by country, region and pan-African – from 2010 to 2025.
Analysis of wind project financing, with information on origin and type of finance provided.
