Inform your decision-making in the commodity markets with advisory and market data solutions that support thousands of transactions daily.
Our focus is on creating value chains for economic and industrial development across the continent. By leveraging industry insights and hybrid teams of exceptional independent consultants, in-house partners, and analysts supported by data analytics, we illuminate opaque markets in mineral processing, refining, and renewable energy sectors.
As the global transition to electricity and renewables accelerates, the demand for critical raw materials like copper, cobalt, nickel, and lithium is surging. To ensure mineral-rich countries capture greater economic value, our advanced technology platform empowers businesses to navigate the challenges of developing African battery mineral value chains (BMVCs). From upstream extraction to downstream delivery, our AI-driven insights and analytics, supported by expert consultants, provide tailored solutions across Anglophone, Francophone, and Lusophone regions.

Many African countries have set ambitious proposals for transitioning to a lower-carbon energy system, particularly through the expansion of renewable energy. However, bold commitments alone are insufficient unless supported by direct and integrative policies. It is essential to implement policies that reform and restructure the continent’s electricity markets to attract the capital resources needed for substantial investment in the critical minerals and renewable energy sectors. Our custom-sourced consultants advise and collaborate with international stakeholders, Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs), private equity investors, multinational corporations, pension funds, development banks, and local communities. Together, we strive to conserve, manage, and restore the continent’s rich natural ecosystems while harnessing its resources for economic growth and industrial development.

High-quality data is essential for analysing the various pathways that electricity development should take across the continent in the future. Projections are only as dependable as the knowledge and data they are based on. We offer a comprehensive overview of renewable energy plants in Africa, including their geographic coordinates, construction status, and capacity (in megawatts). Our team of experts is available to support your business as you explore investment opportunities across the continent. We address the challenging question of how to extend electricity access without exacerbating global warming by relying on fossil fuels.
Unlock the value of Africa's energy transition. With stringent legislation and mounting stakeholder demand for change, businesses must meet the challenge of delivering on sustainability pledges while remaining commercially competitive. Achieve your goals sustainably with actionable insights that illuminate a pathway towards net zero. Addressing sustainability and ESG-related risks and opportunities is already a key focus in boardrooms across many organisations we work with. We support our clients in discovering innovative solutions for a wide range of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) challenges and areas of progress. Empower your decision-making and meet targets with our consulting solutions, data, and insights that help you ethically source Critical Raw Materials (CRM). Stay informed about changes in policy, regulation, and market shifts with detailed news and analysis as events unfold.
As global demand for electric vehicles (EVs), battery storage, and advanced technologies accelerates, Africa’s reserves of lithium, cobalt, nickel, graphite, and rare earth elements are increasingly in the spotlight. We provide expertise in resource valuation, market access strategies, ESG compliance, and advisory on investment structures, empowering Africa to move beyond raw material supply and establish itself as a leader in critical mineral processing and trading.
Africa is a leading producer of copper, bauxite (aluminium), iron ore, and manganese, which are essential to infrastructure, construction, and manufacturing worldwide. We provide solutions for local beneficiation, logistics optimisation, and trade structuring to ensure these metals create more value within the continent before entering global supply chains.
As the global shift toward low-carbon and renewable energy accelerates, Africa’s abundant solar, wind, hydropower, geothermal, and hydrogen resources offer immense potential. These resources can be harnessed to strengthen domestic energy security and establish Africa as a leading exporter of clean energy.
