GET.invest Market Insights: Uganda
GreenMax prepared five Market Insights Packages for GET.invest across Mozambique, Burundi, Uganda and Nigeria, assessing market opportunities, regulatory environments and competitive landscapes in key renewable energy segments.
Under its 'Market Insights' platform, GET.invest shares information on countries, markets and financing opportunities to help clean energy project developers and business owners understand the steps involved in developing a project or running a business in a certain country and/or specific renewable energy market segment.
In 2021, GreenMax was retained by GET.invest to prepare Market Insights for Uganda, through a Developer Guide. This Guide provides a comprehensive market research and a practicable step-by-step manual to quickly assess the renewable energy-driven opportunities in the processing, drying and cold storage sectors of Uganda’s food industry. The “Route-to-Market” section presents practical steps to leverage GET.invest’s market research, exploring investment opportunities, market sizing, business registration, regulations, the financing landscape, and profiles of energy suppliers in each value chain. Two model business cases supplement this guide with concrete financial analysis examples: 1) a standalone solar cold storage business, and 2) a mini-grid developer that operates a second business producing and selling ice to the local fishing industry.
