MARKET-LED CLEAN ENERGY FINANCE

Finance that powers clean energy where Uganda needs it most

Humenergi provides working capital, inventory and term finance combined with hands-on technical assistance to clean energy enterprises serving refugees, host communities and underserved markets.

Who we finance

Loans and technical support for enterprises expanding clean energy access:

Fit-for-purpose finance

Lending shaped around inventory, receivables and productive-use assets; not one-size-fits-all loans.

Hands-on technical assistance

Support in financial management, governance, sales, compliance and market expansion.

Tailored and Impact-led

Responsible lending with measurable impact for refugees, host communities and the environment.
