Energea Announces 12.2% IRR in 2024, Highlights Global Expansion
CHESTER, Conn., March 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Energea, a renewable energy investment manager with more than $140M deployed across three continents, reported robust growth and strategic milestones in its 2024 Annual Report. This performance reaffirms Energea's position as a premier platform for both retail and institutional investors seeking global renewable energy opportunities.
In 2024, Energea achieved an impressive 12.2% realized Internal Rate of Return (IRR) for its growing investor base. Energea expanded its operational capacity to 117.3 MW across 65 projects in four countries, highlighting its commitment to scaling low-carbon infrastructure globally.
In October, Energea joined world leaders in signing the Abidjan Accord, committing to continued investment in African renewable energy. Organized by Bridgewater Associates and Global Citizen, the event brought together six African presidents, the World Bank, investment leaders, and global financiers to discuss Africa's investment potential. The Abidjan Accord calls for a $120 billion replenishment of the International Development Association (IDA) Fund, ensuring that Africa has the financial resources needed to address its infrastructure, energy, and educational needs.
In the spirit of the Abidjan Accord, Energea announced a partnership with Hecate Global Renewables (HGR), extending a senior secured loan up to $10M. This debt financing will help support the 60MW Bonsmara project in South Africa as well as the 50MW Bumpe project in Sierra Leone. While equity investments remain the cornerstone of Energea's investment strategy, blending equity and debt financing provides consistent income while diversifying risk.
Building on its 2024 successes, Energea is poised for continued growth, focusing on expanding its renewable energy portfolio and entering new markets in Latin America and beyond. The company remains committed to enhancing investor returns while promoting global sustainability.
