Sample Scenarios – Ubuntu Clean Energy

The mining industry faces unprecedented challenges in 2025. With energy costs consuming up to 40% of operational expenditure and mounting ESG pressures, miners require innovative solutions that deliver immediate impact without compromising cash flow.

The global energy-as-a-service market reached nearly $64.63 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $147.56 billion by 2029.

Investing in mining technologies not only aligns with sustainability goals but also presents substantial financial returns through increased efficiency and cost reduction.

Major players like BECIS have obtained USD 50 million in joint financing from British International Investment and Dutch FMO, demonstrating strong investor confidence in the EaaS model.

Case Study: Private Hospital Group

Only 34% of hospitals have reliable electricity access in surveyed sub-Saharan African countries, highlighting the critical need for innovative energy solutions

For a private three-hospital network with a total of 450 beds and monthly energy costs of R5.2 million, currently experiencing frequent load shedding that disrupts critical care, UC Energy will implement a robust solution. This will include installing 1.8 MW of rooftop solar across the three facilities and 4.5 MWh of battery storage, capable of ensuring a 6-hour backup.

The solution will be managed by an intelligent microgrid with automatic switching capabilities, all provided under a 20-year Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) agreement with zero upfront cost to the private hospital network.
