This executive summary outlines a market assessment and roadmap for the electrification of healthcare facilities (HFs) in Madagascar, specifically focusing on Basic Health Centres (CSBs) and District Referral Hospitals (CHRDs). The report identifies significant gaps in electricity access, particularly for CSBs, and proposes a multi-phase integrated programme from 2024 to 2032 to achieve universal and sustainable energy access for these facilities.

The 'Strategic Plan for Advancing Energy Efficiency Across Demand Sectors by 2030' is a report prepared by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) and the Ministry of Power, Government of India, for the G20 Energy Transitions Working Group. It outlines a framework to double the global annual rate of energy intensity improvement by 2030 to align with the Paris Agreement and Sustainable Development Goal 7.3. The plan focuses on five pillars: buildings, industry, transport, financing, and behavioral changes, proposing specific policy actions, technological deployments, and high-impact opportunities to accelerate decarbonization.

This policy brief by Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) examines the use of end-user subsidies to bridge the affordability gap for electricity access, specifically focusing on solar home systems (SHSs). It analyzes methodologies for calculating affordability gaps, outlines key design attributes for subsidy programs, and compares case studies from Ghana, Uganda, and Togo to identify best practices and data requirements for improving energy access in high-impact countries.

The executive summary of 'Energizing Finance: Understanding the Landscape 2020' analyzes energy access finance commitments in 2018 across 20 high-impact countries (HICs) in Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. It finds a significant gap between actual and required investment for Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7), noting that funding is poorly distributed geographically and often favors fossil fuels over sustainable, off-grid solutions.

This case study features an interview with leadership from the Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency regarding its role as the energy efficiency hub for Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL), its alignment with Sustainable Development Goal 7, and its support for the Global Energy Efficiency Accelerator Platform.

This executive summary from Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) analyzes finance commitments for electricity and clean cooking access in 20 high-impact developing countries, comparing the 2015-16 period to 2013-14. While electrification finance increased, it remains insufficient to meet 2030 goals, and clean cooking finance has declined. The report highlights a significant geographical imbalance, with Sub-Saharan Africa falling behind and a heavy reliance on a few Asian countries for total finance flows.

This report by Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) provides a market assessment and strategic roadmap for the electrification of healthcare facilities in Sierra Leone. It identifies a significant energy access gap, particularly in primary healthcare units (PHUs), and proposes a phased implementation plan to achieve sustainable electrification by 2030 through diversified delivery models and improved inter-sectoral coordination.
