Eligibility
An important precondition is that structures need to be in place to secure access to energy in the long run. In this way, the partnership program seizes present potential and fosters positive outlooks. However, EnDev only intervenes if the access would not occur otherwise within the next five years.

Supported Projects:
- can prove successful strategies (performance),
- meet criteria determined by a needs assessment, and;
- match focal areas defined by financiers.
