The Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP), is a multi-donor global trust fund programme managed by the World Bank Group. Their mandate is to help low and middle-income countries reduce poverty and boost growth, through environmentally sustainable energy solutions. Under the MECS programme, ESMAP will provide the evidence for understanding how and when modern energy cooking transitions can happen. They will develop indicators and measurement capacity for the international measurement of modern energy cooking services and will look for opportunities to scale up new approaches, business models and technologies developed through the MECS programme.
