Strategic Pillars of ISA

Evolving Vision

Catalytic Finance Hub
01

Catalytic Finance Hub

The Hub will provide catalytic and blended finance for risk mitigation to promote private investment in the Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Caribbean regions. It will build on the success of the Africa Solar Facility, a part of the Global Solar Facility (GSF).

Global Capability Centre and Digitisation
02

Global Capability Centre and Digitisation

To manage the uptake of solar energy in the ISA Member Countries, especially regarding solar supply chain diversification issues and points of view on new and emerging technologies: including Solar PV; Integrated PV applications: AgriPV, Floating PV, and Building Integrated PV; Battery Storage, E-Mobility, Green Hydrogen, Grid Interconnection, and Solar Heating & Cooling.

Regional and Country Level Engagement
03

Regional and Country Level Engagement

Through a selective platform for aggregation and scaling, such as the SIDS platform, focusing on e-tendering and e-procurement. It will deepen our engagement with our countries on ISA’s ten programmes.

Technology Roadmap and Policy
04

Technology Roadmap and Policy

Pursuing the vision of Silicon Valley for solar in India using a hub-and-spoke model connecting existing national centres of excellence operating as Solar Technology Application Resources-Centre (STAR-C), mainstreaming innovation through Solar X Startup Challenge, and replicating the success of Solar Energy Corporation of India in Africa, a nodal agency to enable meeting the growing energy demand through RE and reducing the dependence on fossil fuels, and providing technical assistance.
