Decarbonising Humanitarian Energy
In partnership with UNDP and NORCAP, the Global Platform for Action (GPA) at UNITAR has developed a Multi-partner Trust Fund (MPTF) on Decarbonising Humanitarian Energy (DHE), with initial funding of approx. $22 million by the German Federal Foreign Office, the program will focus on transitioning from diesel-powered generators to renewable energy systems in humanitarian settings in the countries of the Sahel Region.
The implementation will start in Niger and Nigeria in the first phase. Any organizations working in these regions are welcome to join this initiative and be part of the green transition. Please contact energy@unitar.org.
