Register now
Open until 17 January 2025

Scope: Summary

Project must

  • Leverage local partnerships with organisations In Tanzania
  • Contribute to Sustainable Development Goals 7 and 13
  • Involve demonstrating or field testing of the innovation in Tanzania for a minimum of three continuous months, with in country users in real life operating conditions 
  • Contribute to the reduction or mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions
  • Ensure Tanzania is the primary beneficiary of the innovation
  • Be compliant with ODA funding
  • Demonstrate impact to either local communities or local organisations
  • Propose an end of life plan for the technology developed with this funding

Ayrton Challenge Areas

Project must address at least one of the following Ayrton Challenge Areas:

  • Next Generation solar: enable new, sustainable, locally manufacturable solar PV supplies, reducing the emissions and transport costs of solar expansion
  • Smart energy systems: accelerate a series of related technologies which enable more efficient and effective network delivery of energy
  • Energy Storage: create and commercialise innovative battery technologies and associated business models for generator displacement and mobility applications in developing countries and emerging economies
  • Clean Hydrogen: Scaling zero carbon thermal gas production and uses, reducing remaining need for fossil fuels in hard to abate sectors
  • Modern cooking services: unlocking the transition from biomass to genuinely clean cooking, delivering major health and environmental benefits
  • Inclusive energy and leave no one behind: ensure the benefits of clean energy revolution reach the poorest and most marginalised, for example, women, people with disabilities, refugees or Internally Displaced People (IDPs), healthcare patients in unelectrified clinics
  • Sustainable cooling for all: helps to meet growing global demand in a warming world, in a sustainable way
  • Zero emissions generators: replace fossil fuelled generators in an increasing number of use-cases with Zero Emissions alternatives
