About this grant

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly slowed progress toward achieving universal access to sustainable energy services by 2030 — Sustainable Development Goal 7. Efforts need to be redoubled based on comprehensive and reliable information. This project is led by the United Nations Foundation and supports the United Nations Sustainable Energy for All initiative to collect and synthesize key sustainable energy finance trends to inform decision making. Over the last two years, the grantee has completed several analytical studies and knowledge briefs to track trends in financial flows in support of sustainable energy access. Over the next year, the United Nations Foundation will build upon this work and extend its outreach efforts to enable better decision-making to increase the availability of sustainable energy choices.
