Unlocking Local Private Capital to Finance the Productive Use of Renewable Energy (PURE) Sector – a Look at East African Local Financial Institutions (LFIs)

28 Sep 2024

This paper explores opportunities in Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania to mobilize and scale up financing for the fast-growing PURE sector, which drives energy access and economic growth. It highlights the critical role of local financial institutions (LFIs) in accelerating PURE lending to small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and end users in East Africa. Recommended interventions in this paper focus on eliminating existing barriers and galvanizing interest from investors, entrepreneurs, development partners, and local governments.
