Africa sees fast growth in solar power
Africa experienced a rapid surge in solar energy deployment during 2026, driven by falling panel costs and rising demand for stable electricity supplies. Solar capacity increased by 45%, with around 17 gigawatts expected to be installed over the year. It is anticipated that 36 African countries will reach record levels of installations. The region remains heavily reliant on Chinese imports, with approximately 94% of solar panels imported from China. However, there is an opportunity to boost local manufacturing, especially in Egypt, which is expanding its production and export of solar energy components, aiming to develop an integrated regional industry and reduce dependence on imports.
