Description: SustainSolar has launched new asset leasing and construction finance for their product line of turnkey Generation solutions, providing catalytic capital to mini-grid (and off-grid) companies. Developed with support from GET.invest Finance Catalyst, their model is a “force multiplier,” enabling faster scalability of mini-grid portfolios at lower “all-in” cost.
Encountering mini-grid finance and procurement challenges, SustainSolar has structured scalable finance models for short and long-term contracts to match developer needs. Inspired by similar asset-based financing models used in mature industries such as construction and mining, SustainSolar’s new finance tools are designed to address some of the most important hurdles faced by mini-grid developers.
