The Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa (SEFA) approved on December 13 a US $993,000 grant to the Earth Energy Company Limited, a Ugandan firm, to prepare the first-ever biomass gasification project in the country, expected to add 20 Megawatts of baseload power to the national grid. Asigma Capital Advisory Services is proud to have made a contribution in demonstrating the economic impact of the project to AfDB. Asigma Partner, James Orima, affirmed that “the funding from SEFA is not only a vote of confidence in the Ugandan energy sector, but also evidence of the commitment that the AfDB has to achieve universal access to energy in Africa by 2025.”
