Shell Foundation
Overview
Shell Foundation (SF) is a charity registered in England and Wales, founded by Shell in 2000, that creates and scales business solutions that empower underserved populations to earn a living income through access to clean energy products and services.
Shell Foundation seek to deploy resources in three ways to encourage innovation and scale:
- support early-stage technology and business innovations that enhance income by generating greater value for customers and improving affordability.
- work with sector actors – specialist intermediaries to facilitate growth and replication at an industry level, or large corporate partners already serving millions of target customer groups – to maximise the scale and speed of energy access solutions reaching target customers.
- They use their expertise and experience to present the investment case in energy access solutions, their concessional capital to de-risk opportunities and unlock commercial funding, and their understanding of markets and business to develop and scale new and appropriate financing mechanisms.
