Myanmar
Bringing off-grid solar power to rural enterprises
Supporting the government in developing a productive renewable energy sector for SMEs, agriculture and small businesses by funding solar solutions and enhancing local banking capabilities
GEAPP’s goal in Myanmar is to help establish a vibrant market for off-grid electricity, with a focus on solar solutions that help power businesses vital to the rural economy, including jobs and communities. One of the biggest barriers is the lack of adequate financing options, including access to simple guarantees to help unlock local lending.
