Accelerating Solar Action Program (ASAP) Ghana
The Accelerating Solar Action Program (ASAP) is a USD 31.57 million initiative implemented by Ecobank Ghana Limited to expand access to distributed Solar PV systems for households and MSMEs in Ghana. The program combines a USD 15 million loan from the Green Climate Fund (GCF) with USD 15 million from Ecobank to provide concessional term loans with tenors up to 7 years, addressing high upfront costs and restrictive commercial lending terms. ASAP aims to install 30.59 MW of capacity across 2,382 beneficiaries, including irrigation cooperatives, to reduce GHG emissions by 417,452 tCO2 eq over 25 years. Beyond financing, the program includes technical assistance for capacity building of bank officers, solar vendors, and Energy Commission staff, alongside advocacy to catalyze a national net-metering market.
