Aqua Africa Ltd. is an established company in Ghana, with emerging projects in Togo, Benin, and Guinea. We are an established leading provider of climate-smart, technology-based solutions that deliver clean water through digitalised systems.

Our approach integrates off-grid renewable power to draw and store water from groundwater or surface sources. The water is then processed through a filtration network and accessed via a cashless ‘fob’ payment system, offering a digitalised, seamless solution for water access.

Water access data is captured directly at the point of use and transmitted to a central dashboard. This provides measurable insights into the direct and indirect impact of water supply, particularly in areas of greatest need.

Our approach aims to support governments in building a capable, efficient, resilient, sustainable, and inclusive water sector. Aqua Africa has a strong track record in community engagement and in enhancing governments’ ability to provide clean, safe water to their citizens.

Now, more than ever, it is crucial to engage citizens and communities in the process, fostering ownership and responsibility. Countries with universal water access are more resilient, better equipped to support private sector growth, reduce poverty, deliver essential services, address climate change, build citizen confidence, and avoid conflict and fragility.

Since our establishment in 2013, Aqua Africa’s projects have contributed to the achievement of key UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Clean Water & Sanitation (SDG6) and Climate Action (SDG13). Our first project with the Government of Ghana secured €30 million and has successfully delivered over 15 million litres of clean, potable water to rural communities serving a daily population of 38,498, while continuing to measure and report on its social impact.

Our team has been strengthened by a key member who previously led a company in Ghana that built and operated over 80 small-town piped water systems, serving a daily population of approximately 400,000. This deep experience provides valuable insight into the challenges and opportunities of developing such water platforms and future proofing a sustainable approach.
