Assessing Climate Finance Readiness

It focused on de-risking investments, addressing institutional barriers, and scaling climate finance to accelerate low-carbon and climate-resilient development.
Identifying Institutional & Capacity Gaps
Assessing barriers within key institutions, including the Ethiopian Energy Authority (EEA) and Ethiopian Electric Utility (EEU), that constrain access to climate finance and the development of bankable low-carbon energy projects.
Designing De-Risking & Financing Solutions
Providing technical guidance on de-risking instruments and innovative off-grid financing and business models to improve the commercial viability of mini-grid investments.
