Knowledge fuels change - Support energypedia!
For over 10 years, energypedia has been connecting energy experts around the world — helping them share knowledge, learn from each other, and accelerate the global energy transition.
Today, we ask for your support to keep this platform free and accessible to all.
Even a small contribution makes a big difference! If just 10–20% of our 60,000+ monthly visitors donated the equivalent of a cup of coffee — €5 — Energypedia would be fully funded for a whole year.
Is the knowledge you’ve gained through Energypedia this year worth €5 or more?
Your donation keeps the platform running, helps us create new knowledge products, and contributes directly to achieving SDG 7.
Thank you for your support, your donation, big or small, truly matters!

EEP Africa provides risk tolerant early-stage grant financing for locally driven innovative clean energy projects, technologies, and business models through a competitive call for proposals process. Project financing is supplemented by technical support, investment facilitation and knowledge sharing.
Who can apply?
Private companies, start-ups and social enterprises from any country in the world with early-stage projects in one or more of the EEP Africa target countries (Botswana, Burundi, Comoros, Eswatini, Kenya, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe) are welcome to apply.
All applicants need to have strong local presence in the country(-ies) of application. The applicant should be based in the country, be locally led, or be an international company with strong local partnerships.
All applicants must be registered legal entities for at least six (6) months prior to the Expression of Interest opening date.
EEP Africa does not fund NGOs, Charities, Research Institutions, or government institutions (e.g., government ministries, UN agencies and national/provincial/district departments). However, these types of organisations can serve as project partners.
All applicants must meet the eligibility criteria defined in the CfP2025 Application Guidelines.
What type of projects is EEP Africa looking for?
EEP Africa supports early-stage, locally driven innovative clean energy projects that are in active development. All applications need to demonstrate a clear need and additionality for EEP Africa financing.
Funding is provided to feasibility studies, pilot, replication or scale-up projects.
All project activities need to have a clear path to profitability with reasonable expectation of further investment and sustainable commercialisation.
EEP Africa is technology agnostic as long as solutions are based on renewable energy sources (solar, wind, biomass, geothermal, hydro, other renewable energy sources) or energy efficiency.
