Local innovators are combining Congo's unique geology with cutting-edge storage solutions: Katanga-based startups are pioneering cobalt-free lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries - a game-changer given the DRC produces 70% of the world's cobalt.
Recent estimates suggest the DRC''s flagship energy storage project requires an investment of $120-$180 million, depending on technology choices and infrastructure upgrades. This initiative aims to stabilize the national grid while supporting renewable integration.
A study commissioned by BloombergNEF investigated the feasibility of establishing Special Economic Zones for manufacturing battery precursors in the DRC and Zambia.
