Ongeveer 50 medewerkers (80% Afrikaanse nationaliteiten) (bron: crossboundaryenergy.com). De omzetramingen voor de bredere CrossBoundary Group variëren van $20,1 miljoen tot $72,3 miljoen per jaar (bronnen: zoominfo.com, growjo.com).
Wat Ze Doen
CrossBoundary Energy richt zich op het ontwikkelen, bezitten en exploiteren van gedistribueerde hernieuwbare energiesystemen, voornamelijk zonne-energie, batterijopslag en windoplossingen. Hun portfolio omvat 150 MWp aan zonnecapaciteit, 50 MWh aan batterijopslag en 12 MW aan windenergie, specifiek afgestemd op commerciële en industriële (C&I) klanten. Het bedrijf omzeilt onbetrouwbare netwerken door off-grid of achter-de-meter oplossingen aan te bieden, zodat klanten betrouwbare energie kunnen krijgen zonder de last van voorafgaande kapitaalinvesteringen (bronnen: wikipedia.org, archempartners.com). Hun kernactiviteiten omvatten volledig gefinancierde, op maat gemaakte projecten die grote schaal energieoplossingen, energiebeheer voor hybride bronnen en geavanceerde commerciële modellering omvatten om besparingen aan te tonen, waardoor ze een leider zijn in de hernieuwbare energiesector in Afrika.
Projecten & Track Record
CrossBoundary Energy heeft opmerkelijke projecten voltooid, zoals de zonne-installatie in het Garden City Mall in Nairobi, dat wordt erkend als het eerste LEED-gecertificeerde winkelcentrum van Afrika, en het Balama Solar Power Station in Mozambique, dat de Balama Graphite Mine van Syrah Resources van stroom voorziet. Het bedrijf beheert een portfolio ter waarde van tussen de $188 miljoen en $285 miljoen, en levert energieoplossingen aan 30 klanten in 14 Afrikaanse landen. Hun ontwikkelingspipeline overschrijdt 300 MW, wat hun toewijding aan het uitbreiden van de toegang tot hernieuwbare energie op het continent aantoont (bronnen: crossboundaryenergy.com, archempartners.com). Huidige grote projecten omvatten de eerste windfarm van Madagaskar en aanvullende zonne-mini-netten, wat hun innovatieve benadering van energieoplossingen in onderbediende markten aantoont.
Recente Ontwikkelingen
In juni 2022 heeft CrossBoundary Energy met succes $25 miljoen aan eigen vermogen en schulden opgehaald bij ARCH Emerging Markets Partners, Bank of America en het Microsoft Climate Innovation Fund ter ondersteuning van zonne-mini-netprojecten. Vervolgens, in juli 2022, hebben ze een extra $40 miljoen aan eigen vermogen veiliggesteld van Norfund en KLP Norfund Investors om hun C&I-portfolio uit te breiden. Tegen Q1 2024 meldde de CrossBoundary Group dat ze adviseerde over $11 miljard aan transacties, waarbij CrossBoundary Energy mini-grid commissies in Nigeria bevorderde, wat hun positie in de hernieuwbare energiemarkt verder versterkt (bronnen: wikipedia.org, crossboundary.com). Hun lopende projecten en partnerschappen, zoals met PowerGen voor Nigeriaanse mini-grids, benadrukken hun toewijding aan het uitbreiden van de toegang tot energie in Afrika.
