The contribution consists of support to the program Energy Efficiency for Sustainable Livelihoods in Africa" (EELA) which is administered by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization. The regional EELA project aims to promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth through integrated efforts for energy efficiency. The project focuses on expanding the market for high-performing, affordable, and energy-efficient appliances, increasing investments in energy efficiency within the industrial sector, and promoting sustainable local value chains for energy-efficient products and services. The project focuses on making energy-efficient and sustainable products, such as lighting and electrical appliances, accessible to low-income households. By reducing energy costs, the project increases access to energy for poor people, enhancing their economic stability and quality of life. A functioning energy market is also a prerequisite for a country's economic development and prosperity. As the project is expected to lead to increased use of energy-efficient lighting solutions and electrical appliances, it will also result in reduced carbon emissions and less harmful waste from electrical appliances. This will be achieved by supporting the development and adoption of harmonized minimum energy performance standards (MEPS) in the three regional economic cooperation organizations: EAC, ECOWAS, and SADC. The project will also strengthen the capacity of key stakeholders and support the development of local energy efficiency markets through private sector development in the area.
