Solar loans light up rural India
submitted 2 months 25 days 4 hours ago by: shakeel333 : 6 commentsMore than 100,000 people in rural India have benefited from an innovative loan scheme that helps families buy home solar power systems, the UN has said.
The $1.5m project, led by the UN Environment Programme (Unep), supports Indian bankers who offer finance to people who want to purchase a unit.
Similar UN-led "cash to credit" programmes are in the pipeline for China, Indonesia, Egypt, Mexico, Ghana, Morocco and Algeria.
