The Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) is a collective movement for change, working to unlock renewable energy access in emerging economies.
Clean energy is development; without it, every other form of progress is impacted. Today, half the world’s population – 3.6 billion people – live in energy poverty.
Formed on a spirit of radical collaboration, GEAPP brings together philanthropy, including our founder partners the IKEA Foundation, The Rockefeller Foundation and the Bezos Earth Fund, governments, development partners, and the private sector. Together we seek to tackle the twin challenge of energy access and a just transition, unlocking a new era of inclusive green economic growth while enabling the global community to meet critical climate goals within the next decade.
Our mission is to accelerate a renewable energy tipping point that powers progress for people and planet.
