SEforALL AND THE DECADE OF ACTION 100 DAYS REPORT

Under the leadership of Damilola Ogunbiyi, SEforALL has shifted from awareness-raising to a data-driven engagement model prioritizing high-impact countries. Key initiatives include the Universal Energy Facility, a results-based financing vehicle aiming for 1 million connections by 2023, and the development of investment-grade policy frameworks and universal integrated energy plans. The report also details high-level diplomatic engagements across the G20, UN, and various governments to mobilize resources and align global efforts toward universal energy access and clean cooking.

• SEforALL has transitioned its strategic approach from "problem dimensioning and awareness raising" to an engagement model that emphasizes "data-driven decision-making, partnerships with high-impact countries and implementation on the ground."
• The Universal Energy Facility is a results-based financing (RBF) initiative designed to scale energy access in Africa, with a target of becoming a "USD 500 million RBF vehicle" that provides "1 million energy connections by 2023."
• SEforALL is addressing the lack of advanced policy frameworks—which the World Bank's RISE indicators suggest the world is only "half way towards" adopting—by creating a centralized platform featuring a "Virtual knowledge hub" and "Country Customization Support."
• To combat fragmented electrification and clean cooking efforts, SEforALL is supporting high-impact countries in creating "geospatial-based universal integrated energy plans" to determine the "optimal mix of technologies and their associated costs."
• The G20 Energy Sustainability Working Group, following SEforALL's input in Riyadh, has agreed to make "universal access to energy" one of its "four priority themes moving forward."
• SEforALL identifies three urgent priorities to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on the energy sector: powering health clinics and first responders to maintain "uninterrupted cold chains," protecting vulnerable consumers from disconnection, and increasing reliable energy production for economic recovery.
