Stephen Forder's Energy Desk builds geospatial data, tools and media for Africa's renewable energy transition - supporting planners, researchers, landowners, communities and developers.
A source-tracked database of South Africa's energy projects, maintained daily. Every data point carries its source, confidence and full change history.
Where South Africa's new generation comes from: competitive public procurement alongside a fast-growing private and merchant pipeline.
Full project profiles, organisations, turbine fleets and change histories are available to members. Membership opens soon.
More than hosting, these sites are built on the Energy Desk geospatially enabled web platform, with effortless domain registration under energydesk.africa, rapid development, access to shared datasets like the maintained IPP database, and one account that works across every Energy Desk site a visitor is a member of.
Stock photography of Africa's energy transition - SDG-tagged and licence-ready.
