Project Overview

The project supports the acceleration of access to sustainable and clean energy in the Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA) region through the establishment of a Project Preparation Facility (PPF).

An organisation will be appointed as Fund Manager to manage the application-based allocation of grants and specialized consulting services for Distributed Renewable Energy (DRE) and clean cooking projects from both the public and private sectors. The Fund Manager will also oversee key administrative functions such as contracting, monitoring, and reporting. In addition to operational responsibilities, the Fund Manager will play a critical role in the detailed design and adaptive development of the PPF to meet evolving market needs.

The project promotes collaboration with industry stakeholders and will offer grants-based support through a consultant roster to assist companies, industry associations, investors, and national agencies in project preparation, business development, and cross-border energy solutions

Therefore, SNV is looking to recruit experts to support the acceleration of access to sustainable and clean energy in Eastern and Southern Africa. Apply if you’re interested in one of the following positions (both based in the ESA region as well as hybrid/on consultancy basis).
