The United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) has launched a call for proposals Powering Healthcare Innovation (PHI) Fund to address the gap in Healthcare Facility Electrification (HFE) through innovative ideas to help to scale up this important sector that is currently lacking energy access.
.
Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) is an independent organization, hosted by The United Nations Office for Project Services, with a global mandate to accelerate progress on the energy transition in emerging and developing countries. SEforALL works at the intersection of energy, climate, and development, collaborating with governments and partners worldwide to end energy poverty, accelerate the deployment of renewable energy solutions, and combat climate change. Whilst SEforALL’s Powering Healthcare (PHC) workstream acts as an ‘engine room’, providing the impetus and solutions needed by governments and their partners to increase investment in and the sustainability of health facility electrification efforts. The PHC programme team within SEforALL is managing this project.

This CfP is an activity under UNOPS in support of SEforALL, funded with UK aid via the Transforming Energy Access (TEA) platform.
