PAST EVENT | ESMAP-Africa Energy Learning Series | Niger's Arzikin Haske: Funding Results in Clean Cooking and Off-Grid Solar | April 22 | 9:00-10:00 am EST

PRESENTATION IS AVAILABLE HERE. Recording is available in English and French.

This session will open with an overview of Niger's energy sector, followed by a presentation of the Arzikin Haske Fund — Niger's pioneering Results-Based Financing (RBF) mechanism spanning both clean cooking and off-grid solar.

From design to implementation, the event will trace how the fund evolved in concept and practice, what RBF can realistically deliver in a fragile context, and where other tools must fill the gaps. Expect candid lessons from the field and a look at what early results signal for the road ahead. 

This event is part of the ESMAP-Africa learning series Electrifying Africa: Delivering on Mission 300 Faster together.  The Electrifying Africa Program, established under ESMAP, is designed to accelerate electrification in Sub-Saharan Africa and align with SDG7 to achieve universal electricity access by 2030.  

English-French Interpretation will be provided
