The Energy of the Future.
Solar Power and Agriculture in Harmony.
Sunagro develops solar energy projects in East Africa –
where the sun shines brightest and the potential is greatest.
The Future is bright
Sunagro develops solar energy projects in East Africa – a region with excellent solar resources and significant potential.
We combine renewable electricity generation with sustainable agriculture and local partnerships. The result is projects that create a double benefit: clean electricity and greater resilience.
Solar Power and Agriculture in Harmony
We build the energy solutions of the future on-site – in collaboration with farmers, communities and technical partners – and show how solar energy can be transformed into a reliable electricity supply, jobs and economic growth.
Agrivoltaics
Agrivoltaics involves installing solar panels on or above agricultural land, generating electricity while crops are grown. This lets farmers use the same land for both farming and electricity generation. The panels create a microclimate that benefits crops, reduces water loss and improves soil fertility. The soil also retains moisture more effectively, while electricity generation remains stable year-round.
For farmers, this means more secure incomes and less vulnerability to drought. For investors, it means more stable returns and clear climate benefits.
For all of us, it represents a step towards an energy system that works both economically and ecologically

Our Business Model
Sunagro operates a business model that combines abundant solar resources with local engagement.
We develop and operate solar power plants in regions with abundant year-round sunshine and rapidly growing electricity demand. We sell the electricity generated at stable prices through long-term power purchase agreements, while the land continues to be used for cultivation.
Financial returns are combined with tangible benefits for local communities.
Sustainable Investment
Our goal is to set a new standard for sustainable investments. We want to demonstrate that climate benefits and profitability are not mutually exclusive – on the contrary, they can reinforce each other.
Using modern technology, local knowledge and responsible leadership, we aim to build long-term energy assets that benefit both investors and local communities.
Partnerships
Sunagro’s work is built on collaboration. We partner with farmers, technology companies, climate initiatives, and financial institutions – all united by a single goal: to create sustainable energy and local opportunities.
Each project is designed together with local partners, ensuring that the benefits remain where they are created.
Partners
Among our partners are Green Hero AB of Sweden, a leader in solar energy, battery technology and energy management, and Better Globe Forestry in Kenya, whose work in tree planting and sustainable forestry naturally complements our projects.
Together, we strengthen landscapes – through renewable energy and reforestation – contributing to a more balanced future.

Collaboration
Sunagro’s concept is based on agrivoltaics – electricity and crops on the same land.
We welcome investors, partners and community stakeholders.
Together, we can build a new, sustainable energy base in regions that need it most.
