I'm so proud to manage our new Energy Access Institutions Facility, which aims to bring much needed core funding and support to all the market institutions, industry associations and relevant sector advocates that I "grew up" learning from in my career.

[Yasemin Erboy Ruff @YErboyRuff]

I'm excited to share my passion project has finally come to fruition - please meet Walter, a brand-new water molecule, who goes on his first meteorological adventure! This book is me-made and self-published; I hope you will forgive its imperfections.

#productiveuseofenergy side event @OGSolarForum @GOGLAssociation @EforA_Coalition centering consumer voices to develop a functional appliance market.#offgridsolarforum

[Efficiency for Access @EforA_Coalition]

We hear from solar water pump owner, Kavita, as he speaks about the cost and knowledge barriers for farmers to access high-performing, #solar-powered appliances in our talk at the #offgirdsolarforum!

[Efficiency for Access @EforA_Coalition]

“Increased sales of #solar appliances must include a holistic package of support. Our customers have shown increased awareness doesn’t necessarily drive sales, additional financing is needed” comments @YErboyRuff during her presentation at the #offgridsolarforum. @OGSolarForum

[Efficiency for Access @EforA_Coalition]

“If you only give credit to people who have salaries, who are employed, are you really changing the market? You have to help every step of the value chain and customer demographic to change lives.” Some incredibly inspiring words from Bendekken Bachir , Benalya, @OGSolarForum

[Efficiency for Access @EforA_Coalition]

“Often we think of impact as static, but customer impacts, usage, & behaviour changes over time. It’s important to understand product quality throughout its lifecycle and its impact on consumers” @Sunrise_Kat explains during our customer voices event at the #offgridsolarforum.
