Geregu stands as a flagship example of Ascent Lending LLC’s approach to facilitating capital for essential infrastructure within the Power sector. As one of the most recognised power assets in its market, Geregu’s continued development requires long-tenor financing, investor coordination, and structured project support—areas where Ascent Lending plays a critical role.
Power generation and electricity infrastructure are foundational to economic growth, yet they remain underfunded across many frontier markets. Geregu’s operations highlight both the opportunity and the structural challenges facing the sector: the need for modernisation, capacity expansion, improved transmission, and stable long-term investment flows.
Ascent Lending works as a bridge between Geregu and investors seeking exposure to the power industry’s long-term revenue potential. Our involvement supports the capital mobilisation process, helping position the project for private, institutional, and development-focused investment. This includes aligning financial requirements with investor expectations, supporting due diligence, and ensuring the project’s structure meets both regulatory and commercial standards.
Our partnership with Geregu demonstrates how disciplined financial coordination can strengthen energy supply, improve grid reliability, and create a foundation for industrial growth. By providing investor linkage and strategic advisory support, Ascent Lending helps power assets like Geregu expand their capacity and scale more effectively—ultimately contributing to broader national development goals.
This example reflects our commitment to supporting high-impact infrastructure projects that deliver both commercial value and long-lasting societal benefits through improved power access.
