The Power Configurator

Scope your next power project in hours — not weeks.

Our Power Configurator turns your project parameters into an optimised power system — with budgetary costs, permitting requirements and a feasibility-ready scope. Built for the realities of African markets.

Early feasibility work is slow and expensive.

Scoping a new power project ties up consultants for weeks before you even know if a project is worth pursuing. Our Power Configurator gives you a credible first-pass scope in a single session — so you can decide, compare and move faster.

What you get

One configuration. A complete first-pass scope.

Optimised power model

Built for African markets

Built for the field — not for ideal conditions.

From Casablanca to Cape Town, our Power Configurator accounts for high ambient temperatures and altitude that derate equipment, variable grid reliability, fuel logistics, and the import and permitting realities of each market — across the ownership structures that actually get projects financed here: captive, IPP, BOO, PPP, ESCO and lease.

Coverage is pan-African: every market returns an indicative scope from day one, with deeper cost and regulatory detail in priority countries.

Our mission: to put credible power scoping in reach of every African business — from a single workshop to a national utility — so good projects move faster and cost less to start.

Who it’s for

Whether you’re building, buying or financing power.

Industrial & commercial users

Captive power for factories, processing plants, agribusiness, hospitals and hotels.

Mining operations

Reliable power for remote and off-grid sites.

Utilities & public bodies

Frame projects before committing to full studies.

Telecom — towercos & operators

Cut fuel and running costs across distributed tower sites with hybrid solar-battery-genset.

Developers, EPCs & suppliers

Screen, compare and produce first-pass scopes in minutes.

Why you can trust the numbers

Indicative, transparent, and backed by engineers.

Every output is a screening-level model built on real equipment and cost data — with the assumptions shown, not hidden. You can adjust the key inputs and see how the result changes. And behind the tool sits Future Energy Venture’s engineering team, ready to take any project from indicative scope to a bankable, signed-off feasibility study.

On the numbers: the Power Configurator’s outputs are indicative and for screening purposes. A financeable feasibility study requires detailed engineering and sign-off by qualified engineers — which our team provides.

The next step

From model to megawatts.
