The main purpose of the GET FiT Program Uganda is to fast-track a portfolio of up to 15 small-scale  RE generation projects (1MW-20MW) promoted by private developers with a total installed capacity of roughly 125MW. This will help to add much-needed clean generation capacity, help to strengthen regional grids and result in emissions reductions of 11 million tons of CO2.

GET FiT’s addresses the key barriers to private investment in the sector:

low FiTs (some below the levelised cost of energy) for renewable energy,

high perceived offtaker risks (with subsequent demand for offtaker guarantees), and

lack of availability of long-term commercial ficing at acceptable terms and conditions.

In addition, according to KfW Uganda is generally perceived as a risky investment destination.

GET FiT combines:

Premium Payment Mechanism (a results-based top-up on the existing REFiT on a per-kWh basis, funded by the development partners through KfW);

Guarantee Facility to secure against offtaker and political risks, managed by the World Bank;

Private Ficing Mechanism from Deutsche Bank that will offer debt and equity at competitive rates.

FIT Premium Payment Mechanism:

The GET FiT Premium Payment Mechanism is designed to make small-scale renewable energy  generation projects (between 1MW and 20MW in installed capacity) promoted under the Renewable  Feed-In Tariff (REFiT) system ficially viable, thus enabling a large portfolio of projects to move to financial close and into implementation. GET FiT Premium Payments are additional payments per  kWh, above and beyond the regulated REFiT tariff levels as published by ERA.

GET FIT reinstates solar PV as a eligible technology to benefit from the feed-in tariff support scheme.

Oil Industry Braces for Years-Long Iran War

Oil producers, traders, and refiners are bracing for a prolonged war between the United States and Iran in the Persian Gulf with little to no hope of a quick resolution. By extension, they are also preparing for higher prices for longer, a theme present at this year’s edition of the Asia Pacific Petroleum Conference. Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported this week that the mood at APPEC was not particularly cheerful as hostilities in the Middle East escalate once again, suggesting achieving peace would be quite a challenge. The Reuters columnist…

Stolen Electricity is Powering Illegal Crypto Farms Across the Globe

Electricity theft is a global problem, and it’s getting more dire all the time. While the problem is most common in developing countries, where grid infrastructure is limited and utilities and state authorities have lower oversight capacities, developed countries are not immune either. This theft can occur in many forms and at many scales, from individuals tapping into power lines to power their individual residences to large-scale and sophisticated theft schemes to power entire cryptocurrency mining farms. Just this week, Mexican authorities…

The Race to Solve Nuclear Energy’s Biggest Problem

Nuclear power is growing in popularity once again as governments worldwide look to diversify their energy mix and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Several countries are now looking to develop or expand their nuclear energy capacity over the coming decades. However, one challenge remains – nuclear waste. Disposing of waste materials from nuclear energy operations remains a complex task with no perfect solution. As countries worldwide have grown their nuclear power capacity, many governments are still struggling to decide on the best solution…

Iran’s Security Crackdown Runs Into Resistance From Within

Iran's parliament is trying to turn fears of foreign infiltration into law. But as lawmakers work through the legislation, the debate is exposing an increasingly awkward question for the Islamic Republic: How far should the state go in policing Iranians' contact with the outside world? At the center of that debate is Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, who, at least publicly, is doing a balancing act. He has defended the need for tougher measures against foreign infiltration while warning that the current draft of the legislation goes too…

Why More Homes Are Switching From Gas to Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to gas-powered central heating systems and are increasingly being used in new construction, often driven by government incentives. A heat pump uses technology similar to that found in a refrigerator or an air conditioner, extracting heat from a source, such as the surrounding air, and amplifying and transferring the heat to where it is needed. As most of the heat is transferred rather than generated, heat pumps are far more efficient than conventional heating technologies such as boilers…
