Embedded Generation Investment Programme (EGIP) credit support mechanism
The EGIP provides risk capital and a first loss facility to improve the viability and bankability of solar photovoltaic and wind renewable energy projects developed by independent power producers and local municipalities in South Africa. This support helps these projects reach financial close and enables private sector and municipal participation in renewable energy without relying on government guarantees or state-backed offtake agreements.
