On October 8, 2020, IPP Global Inc. joined the league of elite energy companies by becoming an official partner of Power Africa! following a rigorous vetting process.

This partnership allows IPP Global participate and collaborate with Power Africa in her bid to double access to electricity in sub-Saharan Africa, and reach Power Africa’s goals of adding 30 gigawatts of cleaner, more efficient electricity generation capacity and 60 million new home and business connections throughout sub-Saharan Africa.

As a private sector partner to Power Africa, IPP Global is committed to upholding the ideals of Power Africa, and delivering on the IPP promise of providing sustainable energy solutions across the globe. 

We are delighted at this partnership and look forward to lighting up Africa.

IPP GLOBAL Inc. was part of a select group of 11 US companies hosted at the US Pavilion of Power Africa by the US Commercial Services at Enlit Africa, 2022 in Cape Town, South Africa.

The company participated in the Corporate Executive Office (CEO) Programme organized by the US Commercial services, which offered a platform to qualified U.S. companies seeking to expand or enter the Sub-Saharan Africa energy market.

Discussing with representatives of Power Africa, Peter Agbro, CEO of IPP Global Inc. shared that the world must look at a decentralized power generation and distribution system especially in Africa, where communities are decentralized and do not live in large clusters, especially in the rural areas. The decentralized system allows for a true representation of the population distribution, and reduces significant downtime that big power plants suffer when their systems go down. Small generation and distribution systems allow for quick turn-around, and only affect the small community clusters that they serve, as opposed to entire regions, when there is service failure.

And it is in the area of niche power generation and distribution that IPP Global can best serve small to medium size communities. Our Modular power plants can be set up easily, quickly and can be scaled up to meet increasing needs of the users.

Africa is transitioning from dirtier fuel sources to clean energy sources. Africa has an abundance of natural energy which we could all tap into and ensure that in the near future Africa’s energy generation sources are clean and sustainable.

To this end, IPP Global Inc. supports the drive to light up Africa to ensure a sustainable future.

We are excited to announce that IPP Global Inc. was honored with the US Commercial Services Export Achievement Award 2022, on the 10^th of August in Houston. 

The award was presented by Arun Venkataraman, the United States Assistant Secretary of Commerce at Building Bridges, Houston Texas. The Assistant Secretary had an extensive conversation with IPP about opportunities in the Sub-Saharan Africa Region, and the inherent potential for US export.
