Project Focus

Shell Foundation is proud to partner with the FCDO since 2011. This partnership is built on a strong foundation of mutual collaboration, a shared strategic objective to drive the clean energy transition while raising incomes and an ability to co-fund impactful programmes.

Shell Foundation is partnering with the FCDO on the Transforming Energy Access (TEA) platform and the Catalysing Agriculture by Scaling Energy Ecosystems (CASEE) programme. Both initiatives under the Ayrton Fund are focused on accelerating the scale up of innovative clean energy technologies and businesses in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia.
