A €456 million financing package will support Genser Energy’s infrastructure expansion, strengthening energy capacity, industrial development and investment across Ghana and other West African markets.
The term and revolving credit facilities were arranged by FirstRand Bank through Rand Merchant Bank (RMB), Absa Bank through its Corporate and Investment Banking division, and Standard Bank of South Africa through its Corporate and Investment Banking division.
The financing provides Genser with working capital to complete ongoing engineering, procurement and construction projects while strengthening its balance sheet and providing additional financial capacity for future expansion.
For West Africa, the investment adds to infrastructure development aimed at supporting reliable energy supply and industrial activity across the region.
Genser Energy currently has more than 334 MW of installed generation capacity and owns and operates a 436-kilometre privately developed natural gas pipeline network across Ghana.
The company supplies power to industrial clients and utilities in Ghana and also participates in cross-border power exports.
Later this year, Genser expects to commission its Gas Conditioning Plant and Takoradi Natural Gas Liquids Export Terminal, adding further infrastructure to its integrated energy operations.
The latest financing will provide additional flexibility for investment in Ghana while supporting Genser’s expansion into Côte d’Ivoire and other West African markets.
“Since day one, Genser has taken a long-term approach to building energy infrastructure across West Africa,” said Baafour Asiamah-Adjei, CEO of Genser Energy.
“This financing reflects the confidence our financial partners continue to place in that vision, and we are grateful for the support of RMB, Absa and Standard Bank.”
Asiamah-Adjei said the company would continue investing in large-scale infrastructure designed to deliver reliable energy, support industry and create long-term value for the countries and communities where it operates.
The transaction follows two significant financing agreements completed in 2025: a US$428 million corporate refinancing by Genser Energy Ghana and a €200 million equipment loan facility secured by Genser Energy d’Ivoire.
The latest funding also follows Genser’s strategic shareholder transition announced in July 2026 as the company moves into its next phase of growth.
Founded in 2006, Genser Energy develops integrated energy solutions and infrastructure focused on supporting industrial growth and energy security across West Africa.
The combination of new financing, existing generation capacity and further gas infrastructure development positions the company to expand its energy platform as demand for reliable power and industrial infrastructure continues across the region.
The article now presents the financing as the mechanism for expansion, while the headline and opening can be sharpened around the direct social-impact outcome for readers.
