MEA / Q4 2023 14 Jul23190 Best Sustainable Energy Solutions Provider 2023 Genser Energy Ghana Limited has spent more than 15 years amassing the strong reputation that it has today, celebrated for providing sustainable energy solutions across Western Africa. The company designs, builds, and maintains reliable power generation and natural gas infrastructure across the region, thus enabling the mining companies necessary for economic success in the area to continue with operations unhindered. Through the leveraging of its unique competences in the fields of engineering, equipment procurement, project execution, and asset operations/maintenance, the business today boasts an extraordinary portfolio of 200MW generation capacity and more than 400km of gas pipelines. We speak with Anna Klapper, who provides further insight into the company’s sustainable solutions. Genser Energy Ghana Limited (GEGL) prides itself on a unique ability to offer mining companies integrated, end-to-end energy assets combined with ongoing support throughout operations. This service is largely provided to Ghana’s prominent gold mining firms, such as Gold Fields, Perseus Mining, Asante Gold Corporation, and Golden Star Resources in Ghana. Aside from its dealings with the mining trade, the company is too seeking to expand through new business lines, pioneering beneficial partnerships with the wind, solar, and hydropower generation. One way that this is accomplished is through four dedicated business units, all serving to, “sustainably energise enterprises across Africa.” Bolstered by a series of customised offerings that are designed to exceed the challenges and requirements of the industry, GEGL prioritises a series of values that allow for success across its day-to-day operations. These comprise of being fact-based at all times, understanding and implementing good communication, planning and implementing work diligently, and maintaining an obligation to disagree. Through these four choice areas, the business has been able to streamline its efficiency and operations, and ultimately undertake some big projects. Most noteworthy of these is its two largest ongoing projects with the Gas Conditioning Plant (GCP) and Gas Liquids Export Terminal (TNET). Both of these projects have brought GEGL closer to achieving its mission, which centres around sustainably developing Africa’s potential for energy while simultaneously accelerating local expertise through the use of technology. Ultimately, these reflect Africa’s current priorities as it undergoes significant transformations, providing sustainable energy solutions, emphasising local talent, and utilising appropriate turnkey technologies to help prioritise pioneering technologies. Since Africa’s corporate landscape is dynamic and driven by new opportunities, GEGL’s drive to be ethical leaders has led to it recruiting 28 graduates this year, making renewable investments, and partnering with cleantech’s. As a result of total accountability across a spectrum of operations, the company’s performing of feasibility studies, handling of procurement, engineering, and construction, while maintaining infrastructure has enabled the successful providing of totally integrated sustainable solutions for clients. With looming climate consequences on the horizon, it is more important than ever to increase sustainable operations and decrease costs. To this end, the company implements rigorous ISO standards, and looking to support the community, has donated a gas turbine to Takoradi Technical University and begun to work with the Rural Water Supply Project to support more than 4000 households. The internal culture that has been fostered within GEGL is one of integrity, accountability, excellence, and stewardship, growing the team purposefully, all while maintaining a family-esque culture that starts at day one and continues through the implementation of a buddy system and open-door policy for any concerns. New staff are often recruited through a combination of employee referrals, partnerships with organisations, and the company’s stellar graduate programme, which comprise to make, “GEGL a top local employer in Ghana’s energy sector”, as Anna explains. As for the future of the firm, the team at GEGL are now looking to pioneer wind energy projects in the coming years, meanwhile expanding LNG exports regionally and continuing to uphold the gold standard for ethics, safety, and localisation commitments. An exciting development in this project is the firm’s upcoming flagship grid-connected onshore “Wind Energy Project”, with this endeavour solidifying the business’ focus to increase the incorporation of renewable energy. Not only does this project represent the localisation of clean energy generation for the company, but it will create new jobs and catalyse a local supply chain. Quintessentially, Genser Energy Ghana Limited possesses the necessary pragmatism, care, and foresight to continue to innovate sustainable energy solutions across Western Africa. As a result of the exceptional work that it continues to carry out, the company is more than deserving of this award championing its distinction in the field. Anna summarises, “we are eager to share knowledge, foster enterprises, and nurture synergies to responsibly steward Ghana’s epoch energy transformation.” Contact Details Contact: Anna Klapper Company: Genser Energy Ghana Limited Web Address: www.genserenergy.com Visit to Subscribe www.mea-markets.com
