Helping African government private sector overcome hurdles

Overview
REPP is aimed at helping African governments and the private sector overcome investment hurdles for first mover projects operating within newly supportive policy environments. The REPP will provide such projects with a mix of credit enhancement result oriented support technical assistance and debt financing needed to become bankable for commercial investors and lenders. The aim is to establish a cluster of renewable energy projects that provide a demonstration effect for both policy and commercial viability positioning the targeted sectors for further rollout. Typical projects will be in the 1 to 15 Megawatt range employing proven technologies that are new to the country and usually operating within a nascent policy environment. Mostly they will be grid connected or mini grid installations although some off grid business models will also be supported. Key partners are the European Investment Bank United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) and German bank KFW.
