The Facility for Energy Inclusion (FEI) is debt financing facility for small-scale energy access projects - off-grid solar, small IPPs, captive installations and mini-grids. FEI is a $500m initiative capitalised by the African Development Bank, other development finance institutions and commercial investors. FEI will structure transactions, engage local capital markets, finance projects and companies, and accelerate access to clean energy across Africa.
Access to debt financing was identified as on of the major barriers to implementation and expansions in the off-grid, small scale RE and mini-grids segments of the energy markets. FEI was established to provide debt financing through two distinct windows:
- FEI OGEF: Off-Grid Energy Access Fund providing consumer and corporate financing solutions to solar off-grid companies and the related ecosystem
- FEI On-grid: On-Grid Fund offering flexible project and corporate finance solutions to RE projects of less than 25MW and mini-grids.
