Clean energy and water

• Grid-connected systems for self-consumption and feeding into the grid (mostly in the range of up to 2 MW).
• Isolated mini-grids.
• Decentralised renewable energy technologies for MSMEs (e.g. solar chillers, solar mills, solar irrigation pumps, cold storages, and solar aerators for fish farming).
• Focus on solar and biogas.

• Energy efficiency on demand-side, with a focus on industries including cross-technologies (e.g. motors, compressors, etc.) and process technologies for respective industries.
• Energy efficiency in the grid through smart technologies.

• Solutions for minimising water losses (technical and commercial losses), e.g. through advisory services on specification, for the purchase of equipment and implementation of new technologies such as GIS.
• Energy-efficient water technologies (e.g. pumps).
• Decentralised water supply systems (e.g. off-grid solar water purification solutions).
• Promoting the implementation/improvement of monitoring processes.
• Improving wastewater services.

As we focus on economies in Asia and Africa, the market for green technologies is, to a very large extent, in rural areas which rely on agriculture and agribusiness. However, this sector requires resources such as water (e.g. for irrigation) and energy (for running pumps and agriprocessing machines).
