The newly appointed head of Scatec’s sub-Saharan Africa business, Alberto Gambacorta, says the group is pursuing a 5 GW pipeline of renewable energy and storage opportunities in the region and especially South Africa, which is already the Norwegian group’s global hub for engineering and operations. Gambacorta, who was named GM for Scatec sub-Saharan Africa on November 6, tells Engineering News that the region remains a priority market for the Oslo-listed company, where it has invested about $2.5-billion since 2011.
