// Benefits

Unlock Revenue & Reduce Risk

We support distributed renewable energy developers across Africa by monetizing your clean energy generation through International Renewable Energy Certificates (I-RECs). This unlocks new revenue streams and strengthens project financing.

Additional Revenue

Earn 15-20% additional income by monetizing the environmental attributes of your existing or planned installations. No new hardware required—just verified clean energy data.

Attract Financing

Leverage long-term I-REC revenue contracts to secure project finance, equipment loans, or working capital on more attractive terms. Our purchase agreements provide the cash flow certainty lenders require.

Reduce Risk

Stabilize your revenue model beyond unpredictable tariffs. I-REC income hedges against diesel price volatility and grid unreliability, ensuring operational continuity during low-generation periods.

Testimonial

"The partnership with ARK transformed our cash-flow planning. The I-REC revenue now covers our quarterly maintenance costs and battery replacement fund—making us finally sustainable without donor support."
