Description: The U.S. African Development Foundation partnered with USAID and GE Africa to promote innovative solutions that develop, scale-up or extend the use of proven technologies for off-grid energy – reaching communities not served by existing power grids. In January 2016 we will announce the finalists that helped us to reach our goal of 50 African Energy Entrepreneurs for Off-Grid Energy!
This $5.0 million challenge will award 50 grants of up $100,000 each to African companies and organizations providing off-grid solutions that deploy renewable resources and power local economic activities. Challenge winners will have near-term solutions to power the needs of productive and commercial activities, including agriculture production and processing, off-farm businesses, and commercial enterprises.
The African Power Platform will inform the members as soon a new application windows open.
