The Electrification Financing Initiative (ElectriFI) is a blending facility funded by the European Union and managed by the EDFI Management Company. ElectriFI aims to unlock, accelerate and leverage private sector investment to increase or improve access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy in developing countries.

EDFI ElectriFI aims to accelerate the development of businesses providing access to clean energy to hundreds of millions of people by 2030. ElectriFI’s unique business model relies on EU funding so that it can invest in local markets in poorer economies and fragile situations. By combining technical assistance and risk capital, EDFI ElectriFI can take greater risks than other investors. EDFI ElectriFI’s activities de-risk investments and allow private investors and development finance institutions to deploy capital that they could not have invested otherwise.
