We are an impact-driven and independent non-profit organisation created to accelerate the deployment of renewable generation in developing countries. We focus on implementation. We are not a think tank.

RELP’s strategy is to support governments of developing countries in designing and implementing stable regulatory frameworks and new financial schemes to develop their renewable energy sectors and boost the reduction of their GHG emissions.

It is RELP’s goal to help eradicate energy poverty in the developing world by bringing down risks of long-term infrastructure investment, promoting clear and stable rules to foster competition, and promoting the deployment of clean energy solutions and technologies. 

RELP’s objective is to mobilize investments to install at least 200 GW of new renewable capacity by implementing its solution in 25+ developing countries within 10 years, directly and indirectly avoiding in excess of 500 million tons of CO2 annually.

RELP is currently funded by the Climate Breakthrough Project, an initiative of the David & Lucile Packard Foundation in partnership with the Oak Foundation, the Good Energies and the Ikea Foundation. 

The Climate Breakthrough Project finds extraordinary strategists and gives them the time, space, and resources to create and implement the boldest strategies they can conceive to mitigate climate change. Sebastián Kind, RELP’s Founder and CEO, is a Climate Breakthrough Awardee for the year 2019. 

In order to keep its full independence and to avoid any conflict of interest, RELP does not receive funds from private sector companies in the utility or power generation business, or from other private sector institutions with any conflict of interest.
