WHY WE DO IT
Globally, our economies and societies are underpinned by and reliant on electricity. However; Africa has not benefited to the same degree as the rest of the developed world. The link between universal access to an affordable, secure and quality supply of electricity and social economic development is clear. Africa has an abundance of potential power solutions which can be delivered to create that link.
APV believes that their experience, skills and passion offer us the opportunity to have a positive impact on the future of Africa. We do this in two ways. Firstly by helping to create sustainable and viable power markets. Secondly by supporting the development of power projects for generation and transmission.
WE DO THIS WORK TO DELIVER PRACTICAL,
ECONOMIC AND ENDURING POWER SOLUTIONS
ACROSS AFRICA.
WHERE WEWORK IN AFRICA
APV have worked extensively across Southern, and Eastern Africa with additional projects in Rwanda, Uganda, Nigeria and Ghana.
By assisting multiple stakeholders in these regions, APV have built up a broad understanding of the real issues faced by governments, regulators, market participants and end-users.
This 360° view provides immediate expertise in order to assess viability of project success as well as improving risk mitigation. Through over 25 years of project work, APV have learnt the value of local partnerships in enhancing project success. The right local partner can provide critical context to project, open channels of communication to key stakeholders and can address localisation issues.
