Engineering Africa's Industrial and Energy Future

Stratum Energy Venture Fund was founded on a clear principle: Africa's immense economic potential is unlocked by strategic, intelligent, and sustainable energy infrastructure. We are a team of seasoned project developers, financial experts, and energy sector veterans who bridge the gap between visionary projects and the capital required to bring them to life.

Our integrated model is our unique advantage. Unlike traditional funds or developers, we manage the entire lifecycle of an energy project. We originate the concept, structure the finance, and oversee construction as well as operations and maintenance. This end-to-end control ensures that every asset we create is built for efficiency, bankability, and long-term profitability.

Our Integrated Advantage Unlike traditional funds or developers, we manage the entire lifecycle—origination, financing, construction oversight, operations, and value-realizing exits—ensuring efficiency, bankability, and long-term profitability.

Our Corporate Objectives (2025–2032)

Our roadmap is ambitious, measurable, and designed for scale. We are committed to achieving:

A 1GW+ Diversified Portfolio:
Developing a diversified project portfolio of over 1 gigawatt of renewable energy capacity by 2032.
$500M in Capital Mobilization:
Establishing three dedicated investment vehicles (Funds I–III) targeting a combined equity pool of $500 million.
Sustained Profitability:
Achieving annual profitability by Year 4 and delivering cumulative net profits of over $95 million within seven years.
Regional Leadership:
Positioning Stratum Energy Venture Fund as the undisputed regional leader in project structuring, fundraising, and asset exits.

Investment Strategy

A Strategy for Value and Resilience

We combine deep local insight, institutional-grade project development, and disciplined capital allocation to deliver resilient, inflation-protected returns while accelerating Africa’s energy transition.

Strategy Pillars

Bankability and De-risking
We advance projects through derisking, and commercial structuring before major capital deployment to make them commercially viable and bankable. We ensure all our projects are bankable when risks are controlled, cash flow is predictable, and contracts are strong enough that lenders believe they’ll get repaid even if things go wrong.
Contracted Cashflows

We ensure we contract Long-term offtake and PPAs revenues that:

  • Guarantees predictable revenue
  • Fairly allocates risk
  • Protects the project if things go wrong
ESG-Driven Alpha
Decarbonization and compliance demand improve competitiveness, access to capital, and long-term value.
