Our transformative change approach to monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) is key to capturing and strengthening our impact where it counts. Read more about our 2023 impacts.
Zoomed frame highlights two of GEAPP’s priority countries — DRC and Vietnam — having first exceeded 0.5% of renewable energy generation in 2020.
Note: The earliest data point on the graph (plotted as year 1 for Indonesia) is for 1990, while the most recent data shown for all countries is for 2020. Data source: IEA Electricity Information 2022 https://www.iea.org/data-and-statistics/data-product/electricity-information
S-Curve of Renewable Energy Generation
Change is not linear, different countries require different solutions. GEAPP’s business model can be illustrated by reference to the ‘S’ curve. It provides a figurative representation of the time taken for technological innovations to reach a tipping point and become widespread. Having a long tail — the lower end of the curve — captures a slow pace of take-up, while a short tail transitioning to an upward curve represents a rapid take-up. Currently, the transition to green energy technologies in our priority countries is characterized by long tails, with the exception of India. The ‘S’ curves illustrate both a global energy transition problem and the market potential GEAPP is seeking to harness.
India
GEAPP has moved faster and farther in India than in any other priority country, with nine committed investments, eight at scoping or pipeline stage, with a combined value of $31.89m. To date, GEAPP investments in India have reduced or avoided 102,389 cumulative tons CO2e; provided 831,096 people/businesses with new or improved energy access; supported 597,475 jobs and livelihoods; and (directly & indirectly) mobilized $128m in additional financing.
In the state of Maharashtra, the Alliance has partnered with the government-owned utility MAHAPRIET to launch 500MW of rooftop solar and 500MW of ground-mounted, decentralized solar installation. When completed in the next two years,
the projects will benefit 100,000 farmers and reduce carbon emissions by 400 thousand tons a year. Learn more about our impact in India.
