Oshili Power

Namibia: where we began.

Oshili Power was founded in Namibia, in one of the strongest solar resources on earth. The name, the identity, and the founding commitments are Namibian, and they stay.

Skills and community commitments as we grow.

Energy projects should leave more behind than infrastructure. As our projects are delivered, we are committed to:

  • Apprenticeships and graduate pathways into power sector careers.
  • Grants and scholarships supporting study in energy and engineering disciplines.
  • Local hiring and local procurement as delivery principles, not afterthoughts.

From Namibian solar to African firm power.

The lesson of developing solar in Namibia is the lesson of the whole continent: clean energy only transforms an economy when it is firm enough to run industry. That is the company we have become.
