ADA is pleased to announce that two microcredit programmes for the acquisition of renewable energy products in Peru were launched under The Energy Inclusion Initiative in July 2011. Created in 2010 by ADA and MicroEnergy International (MEI), with the support of the Luxembourg Directorate for Cooperation, The Energy Inclusion Initiative aims to develop access for Peruvian micro-entrepreneurs to equipment operating with pollution-free energy.
An ADA-MEI joint initiative
For this purpose, ADA and MEI partnered with two Peruvian microfinance institutions (MFIs): FONDESURCO and Caja Huancayo. The initiative should enable 10,000 Peruvian micro-entrepreneurs to obtain green energy by 2014 through the financial services provided by the two MFIs.
