The UK is committed to mobilising private finance into expanding access to clean electricity in Sub-Saharan Africa to tackle climate change and support sustainable development. REPP was established in 2015 to make high‑risk, high‑impact investments that deliver clean energy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and drive lasting market transformation, alongside improvements in gender equality and job creation.

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) is proud that REPP has connected over 1.5m people to electricity for the first time, avoided 213,127tCO₂e of emissions and mobilised USD191m from third-party sources. REPP has also provided catalytic anchor investment into REPP 2, which is targeting the delivery of clean electricity to over 7.7m people and the avoidance of over 12.7mtCO₂e.

Since the end of REPP's investment phase in 2024, the programme has transitioned into active portfolio management, focusing on maximising impact and value from its remaining assets. On behalf of the FCDO, I thank the REPP Board and Camco for their continued stewardship of the portfolio and for the impacts achieved to date.
