1st loss
capital: UK Aid backs this project! UK Aid invests EUR 20K via the 'Crowd Power' program run
by Energy4Impact. This effectively means that there is 20% first-loss protection, reducing your risk for your investment. At
each repayment date Crowd Power will only be repaid if the crowd is repaid in
full for that specific repayment.
Direct loan
This is a direct loan to a company (rather than lending to a financial institution) and therefore it is recommandable that you are careful with the amount you will invest.
Summary of the campaign
WEnergy Global Pte. Ltd., a company based in Singapore, is active in project development, designing, building, (partial) owning and operating renewable energy power infrastructure with clear and focused actions on the ground in South East Asian countries.
The company’s projection is to deliver a minimum of 800 MW of renewable energy systems principally in South-East Asian countries over the next 8-10 years, focusing on solar power systems, tidal and wind technologies, small hydro-power and biomass-based energy installations. Of this projection, the Company has developed a portfolio of 213MW to be implemented between 2016-2019. This 213 MW is equal to 213 million watts, which can power approximately 1 million households enabling people to perform economic activities, going beyond just a light bulb. South East Asia has over 120 million people without access to electricity.
The company has developed the Sabang Project, which is near the Puerto Princesa Underground River Area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The project aims at boosting social and economic development while encouraging sustainable tourism. The project is at its final stage before start of construction – expected in October/November 2016 - in Barangay Cabayugan, Palawan, The Philippines.
The project has the following features:
The power plant is designed to set an example for rural or off-grid electrification using renewable energy. The architecture of the power plant has been inspired by the culture of the local indigenous communities. The power plant includes an Expo Center aiming to invite tourists (almost 85% of all the 300,000 tourist travelling to the region are Philippine nationals) to learn about renewable energy in the ‘energy mix’. This Expo Center will work closely with the City Government and several other national and international parties to enhance awareness in the area of renewable energy and energy-saving technologies.
It’s important to note that the diesel generators are still required due to the fact that solar power is only generated during daytime and people, businesses, and hospitals for example, also rely on power at night or when the sun is less strong. The solution of using solar power in the mix, allows a reduction of approx. 50% of diesel in the years to come and therefore provides much cleaner and cheaper energy to the people and businesses in the region. Over time, the project intends to increase its solar PV base and substitute fossil diesel fuel with biodiesel, once economically feasible and available, to further increase the proportion of renewable energy in the mix.
This loan will impact approx. 650 small and large off-takers. From households, to small businesses, to small, medium and large hotels and resorts, to schools and eventually medical centers. Imagine how many lives will be impacted by having access to cleaner energy due to this project, and you can contribute by lending-a-hand!
