|OD Orga=GIZ & FDC<br />

|Focus=Solar, Energy Access, Improved Cookstoves<br />
|Country Opportunity=Mozambique<br />
|OD Description=A Fundação para o Desenvolvimento da Comunidade (FDC) e a Cooperação Alemã (GIZ) através do Programa Energising Development (EnDev) em Moçambique, lançaram um convite para apresentação de propostas para recepção de fundos baseados em resultados (RBF) através da Janela do Acesso LNOB+ para Sistemas Domésticos Solares e Fogões Melhorados. <br />
<br />
Esta Janela que será implementada através do Fundo de Acesso às Energias Renováveis - FASER visa estimular a cadeia de valor e distribuição dos mercados de tecnologia de energia renovável (RE) em Moçambique e promover uma adopção mais ampla dessas tecnologias em todo o país, contribuindo assim para os esforços do Governo, para o alcance da ambiciosa meta de prover acesso universal à energia até 2030.<br />
<br />
A Janela do Acesso LNOB+ é uma extensão da Janela do Acesso à Energia que visa incentivar empresas a promover o uso de tecnologias de energias renováveis de qualidade para assegurar o acesso à energia sustentàvel às famílias particularmente vulneráveis das zonas urbanas, peri-urbanas e rurais de todas as províncias de Moçambique.<br />
<br />
Nesta segunda chamada para apresentação de propostas para a Janela de Acesso, espera-se atingir grupos específicos, tais como: famílias nas zonas rurais, famílias lideradas por mulheres, idosos que cuidam de crianças, famílias vivendo em zonas de reassentamento, deslocados internos, comunidades hospedeiras, etc.<br />
<br />
São elegíveis para o Fundo RBF: os Fornecedores e Distribuidores de Tecnologias de energia renováveis descentralizadas. Os implementadores podem ser empreendedores individuais, empresas, associações, cooperativas, parcerias e/ou consórcios entre empresas locais e internacionais que realizam actividades com o objetivo de vender tecnologias elegíveis aos consumidores finais numa base comercial. <br />
<br />
Para mais informações e instruções para a apresentação de propostas entre em contacto connosco pelo Email: faser.moz@giz.de e pela nossa página web www.faser.co.mz<br />

|Event description=For more than a decade now, the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), Thailand has been successfully organizing the ICUE conference series in every two years. The 2024 edition will focus more on sustainability issues and how best different forms of energy can be harnessed towards a sustainable green growth aiming for a net-zero climate future. Thus, the International Conference on sUstainable Energy 2024 (ICUE 2024) on Energy Transition and Net-Zero Climate Future will be geared to be a beacon of knowledge, innovation, and collaboration. ICUE 2024 will aspire to be a catalyst for positive change by enhancing awareness and understanding of the importance of achieving a net-zero climate future. It is envisioned to help accelerate the transition to a sustainable ecosystem for healthier generations to come. ICUE 2024 will aim to:<br />
<br />
*Promote Sustainable Practices: ICUE 2024 will highlight sustainable energy solutions, green technologies, and best practices in various sectors, including energy utilization in industries, manufacturing, transportation, urban development, households, and agriculture.<br />
*Foster Awareness and Education: ICUE 2024 intends to bring together policymakers, industry leaders, academics, researchers, and advocates to share insights, research findings, and real-world experiences.<br />
*Facilitate Collaboration: Collaboration is key to addressing climate change and achieving a net-zero future. ICUE 2024 will be a platform for stakeholders from diverse backgrounds to connect, share ideas, and forge partnerships among diverse stakeholders that can drive progress towards sustainability.<br />
*Support Policy Initiatives: The central role of government policies in guiding the transition to a netzero carbon economy is paramount. Therefore, ICUE 2024 will also be an avenue for policy discussions, exploring effective ways to implement and enforce regulations that support sustainable practices and encourage community engagements.<br />

On the one hand, the target group is supported in investing in PUE appliances such as solar pumps, solar rice husking equipment, solar freezers or solar mills. An important first step is to hold awareness-raising workshops to inform local people about the potential uses of solar energy in different ways. This includes ways to use the appliances in agricultural processing (e.g. solar huskers) and in private households (e.g. charging phones or lighting). On the other hand, the project supports the groups in setting up and managing microenterprises in the agricultural sector through training and group mentoring. Both components aim to support the target group to become financially self-sufficient for themselves and their families. While the focus is on PUE appliances in agricultural processing, the project also supports the financing of solar home systems to improve the living conditions in the village households. The guiding principle for all project activities is that women’s empowermentand economic independenceleads to poverty reduction andcatalyses economic development. SEM Fund is responsible forthe implementation of the project, while GBE provides technical and administrative guidance.[[File:Mill installation.png|left|thumb|Mill installation]]To enable the target group to invest in PUE appliances, the SEM Fund has set up a tiered financing structure. This allows women’s and youth groups, as well as individuals, to make a 10 % down payment on an appliance and receive a 90 % loan for the remainder of the investment cost. A local microfinance institution working with the SEM Fund manages the loan. In line with the local microfinance structure, this allows the groups to vouch for their members. The loan must be repaid over 18 to 24 months. The microfinance institution is refinanced by the project: 50 % of the investment costs are covered by a loan from SEM Fund and the remaining 40 % is a loan that is provided by the solar supply company. This model makes it attractive for the supplier to sell the appliance to buyers in the remote region, because the supplier receives 60 % upon installation – much more than in a common pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) setup. In addition, a guarantee facility of the project partner Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency covers the supplier’s credit risk. The underlying rationale of the repayment plan is that the endusers will increase their income by using solar appliances. In the short term, the increased income allows them to meet their loan obligations and in the long term, they can use the increased income to invest in their businesses and ultimately improve the quality of life for themselves and their families. When the repayments are completed, the supplier loan of 40 % has been repaid and the project has recovered 50 % of the equipment cost. In principle, this allows SEM Fund to operate as a revolving fund, using the repayments for a new financing cycle, including for other end-users and communities. The project uses a PAYGO system to finance the solar home systems, as this facilitates financial reporting as well money collection.</div></td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div> </div></td></tr>
