Africa & West Africa Energy Program

American capital. Allied energy security. The world's fastest-growing power market.

The Program

An American-led energy investment platform across Africa, anchored in West Africa.

Profusion Investments is building an American-led energy investment platform across Africa, anchored in West Africa. The program spans new-build gas-fired generation, LNG-to-power and midstream infrastructure, and upstream natural gas development, pairing US private capital and American-manufactured power technology with the continent's structural shift from liquid fuels to natural gas.

The Market

Africa's electricity demand is expanding faster than any region on earth. More than half a billion people still lack reliable power, urban and industrial demand across West Africa is compounding at double-digit rates, and governments across the region have opened generation to private investment at unprecedented scale.

The Thesis

The gas-to-power transition (converting liquid-fuel fleets and building new combined-cycle capacity on domestic and imported gas) is the defining energy investment of the decade in the region, reinforced by cross-border electricity trade through the West African Power Pool.

The Platform

Profusion has structured utility-scale power and gas transactions across the region, mobilizing tier-one international counsel and working alongside US and African development-finance institutions, global commodity trading houses, and leading American equipment manufacturers. The firm maintains an active multi-country pipeline across generation, midstream, and upstream gas, and participates in the principal US-Africa energy investment forums in Washington and New York.

Program Update. July 2026: Profusion expands its Africa energy program.
