class="aboutProgramme__row"> <div class="aboutProgramme__info"> <h2 class="h1"> About this <i>Programme</i> </h2> <p> <b>Over 600 million people in sub-Saharan Africa live without access to electricity. The Beyond the Grid Fund for Africa (BGFA) aims to reduce this gap by stimulating and accelerating new business models to incentivise the private sector to offer affordable and clean energy access at scale to people living in rural and peri-urban areas. BGFA was established in 2019 as an initiative of the Swedish Government – building on REEEP’s successful, award-winning pilot in Zambia, the Beyond the Grid Fund for Zambia (BGFZ) – and is facility managed by the Nordic Environmental Finance Corporation (Nefco).</b> </p> <p>Today, BGFA is a multi-year funding facility aimed at expanding BGFZ’s approach into new sub-Saharan African countries and kick-start markets for clean off-grid energy. By enabling the scale-up and greater deployment of energy access solutions in different markets, the programme aims to create long-lasting change. It works through a combination of an innovative results-based financing mechanism for energy companies, close cooperation with governments and real-time data collection and analysis. The BGFA programme aims to establish up to 1.7 million energy connections by 2028, benefiting more than 8.6 million people.</p> </div> <div class="aboutProgramme__photo"> <img

and creating the vision, strategy and approach of the Beyond the Grid Fund for Africa programme. Starting at the market scoping stage, we use our 20+ years of experience with, and connections to, a wide network of market players, companies and policymakers to undertake in-depth market assessments and best capture the needs and opportunities of the market in question. </p> </div> </div> <div class="approachItem"> <span class="approachItem__step">Step 2</span> <h3>Window Design</h3> <div class="approachItem__text"> <p>REEEP advises Nefco on the design of the funding windows to synchronize the design with market realities while creating maximum impact, minimal intervention and the best value for money. While BGFA relies on third-party evaluators to ensure impartial assessments, REEEP has supported this process through parallel evaluations and technical guidance to Nefco and their contracted evaluators.</p> </div> </div> <div class="approachItem"> <span class="approachItem__step">Step 3</span> <h3>Due Diligence</h3> <div class="approachItem__text"> <p>Once BGFA project proposals have been ranked, REEEP undertakes due diligence on the highest-scoring applicants to analyse the substance of their business plans and ensure that BGFA requirements are met.</p> </div> </div> <div class="approachItem"> <span class="approachItem__step">Step 4</span> <h3>Technical Assistance</h3> <div class="approachItem__text"> <p>After Nefco validates and contracts companies that successfully pass due diligence, REEEP coordinates and implements technical assistance activities towards BGFA awardees, supporting energy services to meet their BGFA goals and sustainably scale up their operations in target markets.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="challengesTasks"> <div class="container"> <div class="challengesTasks__subtitle uppercase12">Where it began</div> <h2 class="h1">Beyond the Grid Fund for Zambia</h2> <ul class="list"> <li>Kicked off in 2017, BGFZ‘s catalytic procurement approach, developed and implemented by REEEP, proved capable of rapidly and efficiently reaching underserved populations with sustainable renewable energy services.
