The Problem

Renewable energy projects are drowning in regulatory complexity

Regulatory barriers are one of RMI's six cost levers for distributed energy in Africa, and AMDA puts the average approval timeline at ~52 weeks per site. Every one of those weeks is capital sitting idle while paperwork winds through national and county agencies.

Without Enereg

  • Manually tracking 40+ permits across agencies
  • Guessing which documents are needed when
  • Missing regulatory changes until it's too late
  • Templates assembled from scratch every time
  • ~52 weeks per site waiting on approvals (AMDA)

With Enereg

  • Every license mapped with dependencies & timelines
  • AI extracts fields from your uploaded documents
  • Real-time alerts when regulations change
  • Auto-generated submission-ready documents
  • Expert guidance at a fraction of traditional compliance spend
Why Enereg

Expert regulatory guidance, delivered by AI

🗺

Automate the journey

Upload your project documents and Enereg maps every license, permit, and approval required — with dependencies, timelines, and parallel tracks identified automatically. No more spreadsheets.

Evaluate continuously

AI agents evaluate your project's readiness across multiple dimensions — bankability, regulatory completeness, gap analysis — and surface the exact next action to take.

Generate instantly

Submission-ready documents populated from your project data. From EIA applications to EPRA license forms, Enereg fills templates with extracted field values and AI-generated narrative sections.

How It Works

From first upload to submission-ready in four steps

STEP 01

Tell us about your project

Select your country and project type. Enereg scaffolds every license, permit, and approval required — with prerequisites, dependencies, and realistic timelines pre-configured from our regulatory database.

STEP 02

Upload your documents

Drop in your existing project documents — feasibility studies, land titles, EIA reports, financial models. Our extraction engine reads them and populates hundreds of data fields automatically, with confidence scores you can verify.

STEP 03

Track your progress

See every license on a single dashboard. Readiness rings show completion at a glance. AI nudges tell you exactly what's blocking progress and what to do next. Parallel approval streams are visible so you never waste time on sequential work.

STEP 04

Generate your submissions

When your data is complete, generate submission-ready documents pre-filled with your project data. Review AI-generated narrative sections, export to Word, and submit with confidence.

Regulatory Tracking

Regulations change. Enereg keeps you ahead.

Enereg's regulatory database tracks 13 new Kenyan energy regulations gazetted in 2024–2025, Nigeria's Electricity Act 2023 devolving power to state-level markets, and South Africa's repeatedly shifting licensing thresholds. It monitors changes across every covered country and alerts you at the field level — showing exactly how each change affects your specific project.

Distributed Intelligence

Intelligence where you need it. Not a chat window.

Enereg's AI doesn't sit behind a chatbot. It surfaces as contextual nudges embedded directly in your workflow — on your dashboard, inside license details, within your workplan. Every recommendation references specific fields, links to the relevant document, and offers a concrete action.

Frequently asked questions

What types of renewable energy projects does Enereg support?

Enereg is built for solar PV projects between 100kW and 20MW — the small-to-mid-scale range where regulatory complexity is highest relative to project budgets. We cover grid-connected, off-grid, mini-grid, and commercial & industrial (C&I) configurations. Wind and battery storage support is on our roadmap.

Which countries are covered?

Our deepest coverage is Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa, with regulatory mapping also live for Ghana, Namibia, and Zambia. The live figures above come straight from the platform's regulatory database, which is updated as laws change.

How does the AI work?

Enereg uses AI for three things: extracting data from uploaded documents (so you don't type values manually), evaluating your project's readiness across multiple dimensions (bankability, completeness, regulatory risk), and generating narrative sections within submission documents. The AI works invisibly — it surfaces as contextual recommendations in your dashboard, not as a chatbot.

Is my project data secure?

Yes. All data is stored in isolated, row-level-secured databases. Each organization can only access its own projects. Documents are stored in encrypted object storage. We use Supabase (built on PostgreSQL) with JWT-based authentication and custom organization-level access controls.

Can Enereg replace my legal counsel?

No — and we don't try to. Enereg replaces the research, tracking, and document assembly work that currently takes legal teams hundreds of hours. Your counsel still reviews final submissions. We make them dramatically more efficient by giving them pre-filled, regulation-aware documents to review rather than blank templates to populate.

How much does Enereg cost?

We're in beta — all usage is completely free while we build alongside our early partners. When we introduce pricing, it'll be per-project at a small fraction of what developers typically spend on compliance, permitting, and legal services. Jump in and start using it today.
