Very excited to see the launch of a $25 million facility to scale Distributed Renewable Energy (DRE) market institutions! Open Capital, Shell Foundation and the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) created the Energy Access Institutions Facility (EAIF), a five-year initiative to strengthen market institutions in the Distributed Renewable Energy (DRE) sector. We aim to help these institutions scale up and drive ecosystem changes for universal access to clean energy. Our team at Open Capital led initial development and design over the past 18 months and CLASP will now manage the facility through a next phase funded by SIDA (Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency).
