XacBank, an Accredited Entity of the Green Climate Fund (GCF), seeks to finance the development of scalable mini-grid/off-grid systems that generate and manage energy flows between clusters of adjacent households in Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar’s ger areas. The systems will be capable of serving multiple end uses (heating, waste processing and/or removal) under an affordable business model to alleviate utility inadequacies and pollution challenges.

Seychelles needs a unified grid code in order to standardize all the connections to the grid. Until recently, all the electricity in Seychelles was generated by the Public Utilities Corporation using diesel generators. As part of the strategy to transition to 100% renewable energy, regulations have been amended to allow for grid-tied renewable energy systems (RES) and the creation of independent power producers (IPPs). This is a rapidly growing sector but is limited by a number of factors, one of which is grid stability.
