Proton Energy is an independent power plant (IPP) developer, established in 2011 to build and operate power plants across Sub Saharan Africa, with a particular focus on Nigeria.

Currently plans are well advanced to develop three Independent Power Plants (IPPs) in Nigeria over the next five years with a total installed capacity of 1,500 MW, contributing positively to the Federal Government of Nigeria’s ‘Power Sector Reform Roadmap’.

Proton Energy’s first plant is the Proton Delta Sunrise Project, to be located in Sapele, Delta State. Initial installed capacity for the Proton Delta Sunrise Project (DSP) is 150 MW (Phase 1), expanding to 500 MW in Phase 2.
