GreenMax: A Pioneer in Energy Access

GreenMax Capital Group was an original USAID Power Africa private sector partner, where I first discovered the company’s impactful work in energy access during my tenure as Power Africa Coordinator. GreenMax’s leadership has consistently impressed me with its innovative approach to developing new financial tools to address the complexities of an equitable energy transition. It has been inspiring to witness GreenMax’s evolution from a consultancy to a significant fund manager with a diverse portfolio of financing platforms. Its pioneering spirit is evident in initiatives like CEI Africa, a one-stop shop for off-grid energy financing, Green-for-Access, which partners with local lenders to support productive use of energy appliance purchases, and GreenShift Africa, which facilitates electric vehicle imports through working capital. Congratulations to the GreenMax team on 30 years of driving progress in the sector.
