We are a renewable power generation company which delivers utility-scale projects across Africa. Our goal is to deliver sustainable, reliable and competitively-priced power through taking wind and solar projects from mid or late-stage development into long-term operation. Delivering this is critical for many countries in Africa but presents a number of significant hurdles.
Lekela was founded in 2015 to address these challenges. We draw on decades of energy experience held by our management team, and the heritage of our owner Infinity Power, a joint venture between Egypt’s Infinity Group and UAE’s Masdar.
Our vision is to build an organisation that offers best-in-class delivery of clean power in African countries. Today, our current portfolio includes over 1GW of wind power in operation across Egypt, Senegal and South Africa, and a pipeline of additional projects in development across Africa.
Central to our strategy is a focus on creating long-term value for the communities where we operate. We want to make a positive impact that lasts for generations in these communities. Beyond the provision of renewable power and employment, we also focus on promoting education, enterprise and environmental initiatives.
Energising Africa’s sustainable future
Lekela’s ultimate vision is to deliver long-term and sustainable benefits for African countries and communities through clean, reliable power.
We’re here for the long term and must earn the trust of our customers, partners and stakeholders. We do this by acting with integrity; balancing the needs of stakeholders, being honest with partners, and following through on our promises.
We operate in diverse markets and therefore we reflect this in what we do as a company. There is no one-size-fits-all approach and so we always value, respect and invite alternative perspectives.
We foster a supportive and collaborative working environment. We achieve our goals by working together and empowering each other to deliver.
In fast moving markets, we must adapt quickly and have the persistence to get our projects done and meet the needs of our stakeholders.
What we do matters, so we do it well. We believe it is right that we transition to low-cost, low-carbon power generation and we are passionate about the benefits of renewable energy.
We have a responsibility to think big and act now to protect the climate and environment. That means being ambitious, acting decisively, working hard, and delivering on our commitments.
