This paper examines China's growing role in Africa's renewable energy landscape through a political economy and developmental state lens, using the Garissa Solar PV project in Kenya and the Adama Wind project in Ethiopia as comparative case studies. . Solar power is widely recognized as an excellent solution for Africa. Sunlight is abundant, economies crave reliable power sources, and the technology is becoming massively cheap. According to 2024 data from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), solar ranks among the cheapest energy. . China is increasingly steering its energy investments in Africa toward renewable sources, with solar and wind projects now comprising 59 percent of its energy portfolio on the continent, according to a recent report by UK-based think tank, ODI Global.
