We operate at the intersection of global energy, climate and development efforts.
Developing and emerging economies want sustainable energy systems that power social and economic opportunities. But achieving this means addressing several key challenges – from a lack of political commitment to inadequate finance to difficulty scaling up solutions.
We focus on three strategic pillars to address these challenges:
Global Advocacy & Diplomacy
We raise ambition, drive decision-making and secure new commitments for sustainable energy.
Scalable Solutions
We develop financial, policy and technical solutions that can be scaled across countries and regions.
Tailored Country Support
We respond to countries’ specific needs and provide support to improve energy access and accelerate their energy transitions.
Our Programmes
Our programmes are designed to address specific areas of a just and equitable energy transition, but collaborate closely to deliver holistic solutions to countries.
Unlocking Africa’s vast potential for participating in voluntary and compliance carbon markets.
Identifying and seizing opportunities to address clean cooking access gaps globally.
Enabling energy efficiency policies and investment as part of countries' energy transition plans.
Collaborating with countries to create customized roadmaps to meet their energy, climate and development goals.
Building local capacity and facilitating the implementation of governments' Energy Transition and Investment Plans.
Supporting women and youth to be leaders in the energy transition, with equal opportunity to enjoy its benefits.
Catalysing international political and financial momentum for just and equitable energy transitions at major global fora.
