SEforALL has a global mandate to accelerate progress on the energy transition in emerging and developing countries. We have built strong partnerships with the governments of Brazil, India and Nigeria to help them meet their energy transition goals.
Why Brazil, India and Nigeria?
We focus on supporting countries in different regions of the Global South. We also focus on impact at scale, which is why our work with Brazil, India and Nigeria is so significant.
Combined they account for roughly 23% of the world’s population. So, what happens in these three countries in the coming years will make or break the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement on climate change.
Our long-running support to G20 Presidencies paved the way for our partnerships with Brazil and India. We helped them use their G20 Presidencies as a platform to rally the global community behind just energy transitions, and we continue to support them on their domestic energy initiatives.
The Government of Nigeria engaged us to develop its ambitious Energy Transition Plan (ETP), which has evolved into a strong partnership for implementing the plan and closing the country’s energy access gaps.
Our focus
These three countries are each at different stages of development and have their own unique energy challenges. Our work is tailored to their local context and needs but has a common focus to end energy poverty, combat climate change and power livelihoods.
