《彭博社》网站2月3日报道，根据一份最新行业报告，受公用事业规模项目激增推动，非洲在2025年录 得有史以来最快的太阳能增长速度，并且到2029年，新增太阳能装机容量可能超过去年年度新增规模的 六倍。全球太阳能理事会（Global Solar Council，简称GSC）周二发布的报告称，非洲在2025年新增约 4.5吉瓦太阳能装机容量，同比大幅增长54%，不仅打破了2023年创下的纪录，也超过了中期预测。其 中，南非以1.6吉瓦位居首位，其次是尼日利亚的803兆瓦和埃及的500兆瓦。到2029年，非洲有望累计 新增超过33吉瓦的太阳能装机容量。报告指出，要实现这一潜力，关键在于使融资、规划和监管与市场 现实相匹配。一些全球最大的太阳能微电网公司负责人上周表示，到2030年，为实现非洲国家的电力普 及目标，所需投资可能高达460亿美元。这些公司——包括最大运营商Husk Power Systems——估算，其 中约280亿美元为债务融资，140亿美元为股权投资，另有46亿美元来自赠款和补贴。 ...
