Financing and Scaling Productive Use of Energy

Productive use of (renewable) energy (PUE) is commonly recognised as a potential contributor to economic development, particularly in food value chains. This paper focuses on the wider context of how to structure, scale and finance PUE as a sustainable business model. Furthermore, this publication emphasises the underlying financing challenges for PUE projects and companies in all application contexts (urban, rural, industrial, food value chain, etc.) and presents recommendations that may be integrated in financiers’ and investors’ approaches to PUE to better support the growth and financial sustainability of the sector.
