2.    Product Advancement Supporting Environmental Protection

The Clean Energy Loan is one of the products which have the clear objective of reducing energy consumption and replacing traditional methods with clean energy solutions such as solar kits and efficient stoves. This product was developed under the “Access to Clean Energy Program”, funded by the Frankfurt School in collaboration with United Nations Environment Program (UNEP).
