ESDS Project

Icon pillars.png

Improving the Policy Framework

We work together with policy makers to create the necessary framework conditions to implement the GCR and ensure sustainable energy access for refugees and host communities at a national, regional and district level.


Icon Solar.png

Greening Social Infrastructure

We advise UNHCR to solarize its infrastructure via market-based approaches and implement energy efficiency measures to reduce its diesel consumption.


Icon Market.png

Increasing Market-based Energy Access

We promote markets for sustainable energy products and services for refugee and host communities in collaboration with UNHCR and private sector actors.


The project teams of ESDS work towards these objectives in selected regions in the three partner countries Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda in collaboration with UNHCR and local and national authorities. ESDS has teams in each country which implement activities on the ground and are supported by the Global-team based in Germany that coordinates all measures and aligns them to each other. As the Clean Energy Challenge Baseline Data Visualization shows, the given conditions regarding access to sustainable energy for refugees and host communities differ in the three project-countries, translating itself into context-specific activities whose scope vary for the countries. The three intervention areas constitute however the overall and common framework.
