Pilot Innovation Fund Awardees
by: Davis Broach February 28, 2013
In December, the Alliance reviewed approximately 75 applications for
the Pilot Innovation Fund (PIF) from organizations around the world. The PIF,
supported by Canada International Development Agency, was designed to jumpstart
innovative approaches to strengthen supply and enhance demand in the sector
along the value chain. In return for seed capital to finance and pilot these
innovations, recipients are required to document lessons learned and share
results to advance awareness of scalable solutions in the sector. The
applications we received proposed a variety of pilots and utilized many
different stove and fuel types. The average grant size awarded was
approximately $50,000. Through a highly competitive process, the Alliance is
proud to announce the following award recipients:
UpEnergy
a.. Leverage decentralized MFIs to boost the affordability and the
accessibility of energy-efficient stoves in Uganda
b.. Uganda
