An initiative of E&EL Global Inc. · Delaware, United States of America

The energy infrastructure of the AI era.

A 30 GW clean-energy AI computing initiative anchored at Grand Inga, Democratic Republic of Congo — originated by a U.S. Delaware entity under the U.S.–DRC Strategic Partnership Agreement.

Overview

A structured response to the AI era's defining constraint.

The global Artificial Intelligence industry faces a structural energy constraint: the absence of clean, massive, continuous power at the scale the next generation of AI models requires. The IDSH addresses that constraint at its only natural answer — Grand Inga.

The site

The Vallée de la Bundi, Bas-Congo Province (5°31'S, 13°35'E), adjacent to the Inga I and Inga II powerhouses, on a Precambrian granite/gneiss plateau bordered by the Congo River — the world's second-largest river by discharge.

The framework

The U.S.–DRC Strategic Partnership Agreement, signed December 4, 2025, names Grand Inga a priority strategic infrastructure undertaking. E&EL Global Inc. is the qualifying U.S. person operationalizing it.

The mandate

30 GW of clean, continuous, zero-carbon hydroelectric computing capacity, phased over a decade. A first commercial phase of 1 GW anchors and demonstrates the model.

The benefit

A permanent 15 % IDSH energy dividend committed to the SNEL at cost — a structured, contractual revenue stream for national electrification, plus DRC sovereign cloud capacity hosted on Congolese soil.

Three strategic pillars

National sovereignty, AI infrastructure, sovereign digital capacity.

Every IDSH workstream is structured to deliver direct, measurable benefit on three axes simultaneously — energy sovereignty for the DRC, scalable AI infrastructure for the global compute economy, and a sovereign digital platform for the Congolese State.

  1. I

    Inga I & II Rehabilitation

    National energy sovereignty.

    Immediate mobilization of private U.S. capital for the complete rehabilitation and modernization of the Inga I (351 MW) and Inga II (1,424 MW) hydroelectric plants — restoring 1,775 MW to the national grid and providing the SNEL with a contractually guaranteed 15 % energy dividend at cost price.

  2. II

    30 GW Hyperscale AI Hub

    The world's largest clean-energy computing complex.

    Development of a hyperscale AI computing campus in the Vallée de la Bundi, phased over ten years to a 30 GW target. Phase I (1 GW) demonstrates the model and anchors the first institutional tenant; subsequent phases scale with demand from AI labs and hyperscalers.

  3. III

    DRC Sovereign Cloud

    Digital independence on Congolese soil.

    A dedicated sovereign cloud platform for the Congolese State Administration — hosting all government data (geological, mineral, financial, administrative) on Congolese soil with cybersecurity architecture meeting international sovereign-infrastructure standards. Aligned with the SPA's Project Vault objectives.

Site, energy, computing, security, connectivity.

Site selection

The Vallée de la Bundi provides a naturally defensible perimeter, abundant Congo River cooling water, a Precambrian granite plateau suited to surface and future underground infrastructure, proximity to the Inga powerhouses, and access to the Lobito Corridor fiber route.

Energy infrastructure

Phase I begins with the rehabilitation of Inga I (351 MW) and Inga II (1,424 MW): turbine overhaul, penstock and electrical modernization, SCADA upgrades, switchyard works, and a dedicated 400 kV transmission line to the IDSH campus sub-station.

AI computing campus

A phased AI computing complex sized for ultra-high-density workloads (rack-scale systems including Nvidia GB200 NVL72 at 120 kW per rack), with a closed-loop Congo River cooling architecture modelled on the world's most efficient large-scale liquid-cooled data centres.

Integrated security

A four-layer protection framework: a sovereign Zone Tampon under formal DRC Ministry of National Defence partnership; on-site private security; campus hardening to Critical Infrastructure Protection standards; and cyber security aligned with NIST SP 800-82 and ISO 27001.

Connectivity

Four independent routing layers: the Lobito Corridor fiber to Angola Cables (SACS); WACS and 2Africa via Muanda; the DRC's planned 192 Tbps submarine programme; and Starlink/LEO satellite for monitoring and emergency traffic.

Underground option

The Bas-Congo basement geology — Precambrian granite/gneiss with 120–200 MPa uniaxial compressive strength — supports a Phase II+ underground campus at 80–300 m depth, providing a strategic infrastructure protection profile equivalent to sovereign critical installations.

Governance & structure

A U.S.-anchored vehicle for a bilateral framework.

The IDSH is structured to satisfy the U.S. ownership eligibility requirements of the SPA throughout the project lifecycle, while preserving the institutional flexibility required to engage the DRC government, multilateral partners, and global investors.

Originating entity

E&EL Global Inc. — incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America — is the originating entity, intellectual property owner, and majority-shareholder-designate of the IDSH SPV. E&EL maintains a minimum 51 % founding equity stake on a fully diluted basis.

Project SPV

The IDSH Special Purpose Vehicle is to be incorporated in Delaware upon the occurrence of a qualifying trigger event — including the formal Letter of Invitation from the Office of the President of the Republic of the DRC, QSP designation by the U.S.–DRC Joint Steering Committee, or a firm institutional financing commitment.

Project leadership

Benoit Bogaerts — a 30+ year pan-African and international executive whose chairmanships include Petra Oil Africa (Buhari Group), BGC Holding S.A., HMH Hybrid Mobility Holdings, BBET Côte d'Ivoire and LFC Aviation — serves as Chief Executive Officer of the IDSH project (pre-SPV phase) and Non-Executive Chairman-designate of the IDSH SPV Board.

Reserved matters

Constitutional documents, equity transfers, intellectual property dispositions, CEO appointment, and material strategic direction are reserved to E&EL Global Inc. on a perpetual basis, ensuring U.S.-majority strategic control through every phase of capital raise.

National impact & ESG

A transformative national development initiative.

  • Energy access

    The 15 % SNEL energy dividend at cost price represents the single most concrete and contractually binding contribution to Congolese energy access in the history of Grand Inga project discussions. At Phase I, approximately 150 MW of continuous power — sufficient to supply over one million Congolese households.

  • Employment & skills

    Thousands of high-value Congolese positions across civil and electrical engineering, data centre operations, cybersecurity, network management, and AI systems administration. A national skills-transfer programme will be developed in partnership with Congolese universities and technical institutes.

  • Sovereign digital infrastructure

    The DRC State Sovereign Cloud guarantees the independence, confidentiality and integrity of all strategic government data — geological, mineral, financial and administrative — hosted exclusively on Congolese soil and shielded from any external surveillance or interference.

  • Sustainability profile

    Zero direct carbon emissions, non-consumptive cooling, no community displacement, full DRC environmental law compliance, and direct alignment with SDG 7, 8, 9, and 17. Independent ESIA commissioned as part of project preparation.
