The overall objective of Regional Clean Cooking Action in West Africa (ReCCAWA) is to increase the access to affordable, reliable, clean and sustainable energy services for clean cooking in West Africa.This will be achieved through a three-pillar approach:1.

Increase the supply of clean cooking solutions through professionalisation and facilitation of access to finance in the West African region;3. Increase the demand for clean cooking solutions by means of demand-side subsidies and targeted behavioural change interventions in specific West African countries.ReCCAWA will run from 2025 to 2028.It is implemented, under the umbrella of the Team Europe Initiative Africa EU Green Energy Initiative (AEGEI), by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) and the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID).It will be closely coordinated with regional institutions (amongst others ECOWAS Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (ECREEE) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Commission) and local Authorities.
