IFC’S PURPOSE
• To promote open and competitive
markets in developing countries
• To help generate productive jobs and
deliver essential services to the
underserved
• To support companies and other
private sector partners where there is
a gap
• To catalyze and mobilize other
sources of finance for private sector
development

Lighting Africa’s approach
The overall approach of the program is to
open & accelerate the development of
off-grid lighting and energy markets by:
1. Lowering market entry costs/barriers
2. Improving the enabling environment
3. Supporting the scale up and replication of
successful business models
IFC/WB led initiative that mobilizes private sector to create a vibrant commercial and sustainable market for high-
quality solar
energy products:
The overall goal of the project is to contribute to the development of a commercial market for high quality solar energy
products (e.g., lanterns, kits, solar home systems), to enable access to cleaner and safer off-grid lighting and energy
for the people of Tanzania.

Lighting Tanzania Critical success factors for accelerating growth
Financing the supply
chain
• Potential of industry proven. Financial institutions need to now
support with fair lending across the supply chain
(trade/retail/consumer)
Quality
products/standards
• Negative perception of solar created by poor quality inferior
products. Work to integrate standards into regulatory environment
Continue Driving
Consumer Awareness &
rural distribution
• Still a new product category in major regions. Awareness too
expensive for industry players to do it alone
• Extensive consumer and retail awareness countrywide
• Enhancing distribution across the country by working with the
private sector
Building partnerships • It’s a collective effort to build a market; REA, SNV, TAREA, TBS etc
Policy & Regulations • Duty /VAT issues impeding uptake of solar products

Usually the companies in the richer world and the products which comes to the market are usually focused on Tier 1, 2 & 3 markets. Tier 4 markets i.e Bottom of Pyramid Markets are usually devoid of products. Many Companies like Hindustan Unilever, Aravind Eyecare, Narayan Hrudiyalaya, Jaipur Foot, Eid Parry, Lijjat Papad, ITC Ltd, etc have came up with the products that are specially made for BOP markets. The market volume is very high as more than 4000 million people in the world are below $2 annual per capita income, Even 46% of the Indian population live below the poverty line.......This people cannot afford to the products available for the tier 1,2 & 3 markets as they cannot afford them..... Thus a greater potential occurs at the BOP market.....Catering BOP market doesn't mean catering 'sachets" to them. Making such products which are affordable by these markets...and thus making profits..... Instead enabling them to purchase the product by enhancing the buying power of the consumers..........Reverse Innovation can bring upon the change to the BOP markets.......

The East Africa Masterclass at Terrat focused on the village level experience of off-grid energy. We have invited local leaders and rural energy providers from Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Malawi and Tanzania. We were keen for village headmen and headwomen to share their village experiences of energy provision and to tell us about the outcomes and impacts of productive energy use in relation to standards of living, education, heath and employment in the village. The workshop heard from the off grid energy providers about their achievements and challenges in bringing off-grid energy to villages and how they have worked with village leaders and the village community.

Smart Villages/LCEDN webinar series For more information, please go to e4sv.org www.e4sv.org/events/webinar-resilience-reliability-energy-nepal The successful provision of energy services depends on the creation of resilient and reliable energy projects. Their resilience depends on the whole system’s ability to handle shocks and stresses, such as natural hazards and the effects of climate change. Meanwhile, the reliability of schemes depends on the on-going relationship between communities and technology. This can, in turn, contribute to broader community resilience. This webinar explores these interlinkages in the context of Nepal, and is being held jointly with HPNet - the Hydro Empowerment Network (www.hpnet.org)

Smart Villages/LCEDN webinar series For more information, please go to e4sv.org https://e4sv.org/events/webinar-minigrid-game Minigrids. They're one of the most attractive models for remote community electrification. They're scalable, and flexible, and capable of supplying power at levels that really permit productive use to be made of the power. But at the same time, they raise alot of questions - what is the most appropriate structure, size, payment system etc for a particular local community. Getting these things wrong has led to systems failing, or not having the development impact they were intended to have. To try to address some of these issues, Energy Action Partners have devised their Minigrid Game. This is a collaborative role-playing game built around a representation of a minigrid system, intended to be used as an educational and collaborative planning tool in designing a community-sized minigrid system. The game is designed to be used within a process that explores minigrid planning and operational decisions. The Minigrid Game is a completely novel way for communities to develop workable solutions to the unique challenges of managing a community minigrid, such as system sizing, tariff-setting, and demand-side management. By playing as a group, the players can also improve their understanding of energy technology, practice negotiation and consensus-building skills, and most importantly, have fun. Join us on Tuesday 15th to hear more about the game and its applications from Scott Kennedy, Executive Director and Ayu Abdullah, Southeast Asia Director of Enact Partners, and also for an opportunity for all partipants worldwide to play the game live during the webinar!

Smart Villages/LCEDN webinar series For more information, please go to e4sv.org https://e4sv.org/events/webinar-energy-and-transport Transport is an often overlooked aspect of rural development and linkage to energy access and productive use of energy in the developing world, but it is of critical importance. Not only does transportation rely on a source of energy (and hence transport can itself become a productive use of energy), but an effective transport infrastructure is a critical part of allowing mobility, access to markets, establishment of distribution chains (both to access energy generating equipment as well as marketing services, goods and products). In this webinar, we were joined by experts presenting on diverse aspects of this complex challenge, including Prof Gina Porter and Dr Arash Azizi of the University of Durham, Dipak Gyawali, former Minister of Water Resources in Nepal and Chair of the Nepal Water Conservation Foundation, and Dr Ben Campbell from the UK Low Carbon Energy Development Network. As usual, we provided an opportunity for the participants joining the webinar to put questions to the speakers, for them to be answered during the session.

Smart Villages/LCEDN webinar series For more information, please go to e4sv.org https://e4sv.org/events/webinar-education-and-young-people One of the most powerful benefits of energy access in rural communities in the developing world is the potential impact on education. Whether a simple solar lantern permits an extra hour of homework and study after dark, or whether a more sophisticated community energy and ICT project permits remote education and training to take place. And one of the most important, but often under-represented, groups of community stakeholders are young people. This LCEDN/Smart Villages webinar aims to create a wide-ranging discussion on these issues, with experts presenting their experiences and work on diverse aspects of the energy/youth/education equation. Our presenters this month include Dr Jiska de Groot and the team at the Energy Research Centre at the University of Cape Town, Craig Gibbs from JET Education Services in South Africa, Prof Jo Tacchi and Dr Amalia Sabiescu from Loughborough University, and Rachita Misra and Huda Jaffer from the SELCO Foundation. In addition to presentations on their experiences, the webinar included an opportunity for Q&A with all webinar participants.

Smart Villages/LCEDN webinar series For more information, please go to e4sv.org https://e4sv.org/events/webinar-crowd-power If you are a start-up or a smaller energy access firm looking to raise funds, then energy-targeted crowdfunding may just be for you. Raising the necessary finance for start-up and scale-up energy access ventures on terms that make commercial sense is one of the biggest challenges in the sector. In the search for appropriate finance, innovative energy access projects are increasingly turning to crowdfunding to address their financing need. Energy4Impact has spent the last 3 years looking into the challenges and opportunities in crowdfunding energy access. In this webinar, they will share some of their findings and recommendations, covering donation, reward, debt and equity crowdfunding. Energy4Impact will be joined by crowdfunding platform partner Lendahand, as well as crowdfunded entrepreneurs Sosai Renewable Energies of Nigeria to present their experiences. This month, our presenters/discussants will be Energy4Impact's Davinia Cogan, who has been managing their crowdfunding research programme, Koen The, CEO of Lendahand Ethex and Habiba Ali, Managing Director of Sosai RE. In addition to presentations on their experiences, the webinar will include a panel discussion on the various challenges and opportunities of crowdfunding energy access between the presenters, as well as - of course - an opportunity for Q&A with all webinar participants.

FOR MORE INFORMATION, PLEASE VISIT e4sv.org In September 2017, the Low Carbon Energy for Development Network (LCEDN) held its annual conference on the topic of "Equity and Energy Justice" at Durham University, UK. As a follow-up to this conference, we held two webinars to share highlights from the conference. The first webinar focussed on energy justice. This month, we examined a second theme from the conference, and focused on questions of how academic research can best have impact at the grassroots of energy access and productive use, how that "knowledge gap" can be closed, and what some of the most effective solutions might be for ensuring that research can be applied effectively and equitably. The speakers included Practical Action's Sarah Begg, who has been leading a participatory learning study with LCEDN looking at how academic research impacts the grassroots. She will be joined by her colleague from Practical Action's Bangladesh office, Iffat Khan, who will present some of the specific outcomes and experiences of the study in Bangladesh. Finally, the Smart Villages Initiative will share the global perspectives they have been able to gather on bridging academic research and making it relevant to energy access practitioners, entrepreneurs, and rural communities.
