GET.pro Evaluation 2025

GET.pro is a European multi-donor platform, delivering on international energy and climate goals in a Team Europe spirit. The programme was commissioned by the BMZ in 2018 and is co-funded by the EU, Norway, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Austria. GET.pro offers scalable and complementary instruments addressing the energy transition:? - The?Secretariat of the Africa-EU Energy Partnership (AEEP) promotes the strategic political dialogue between Africa and Europe on energy - GET.transform?supports partner governments and regulatory bodies to establish bankable investment-ready frameworks. - GET.invest?mobilises private investments in clean energy by building a pipeline of bankable investment projects. - The Green Hydrogen Business Alliance contributes to the sustainable market ramp-up of green hydrogen and PtX GET.pro acts as a European joint action platform directly feeding into and complementing other programmes and initiatives. It emphasises its Team Europe character by actively reaching out to additional European players and serving as a key vehicle for turning European development cooperation strategies and priorities into practice. Underlying principle is to bundle European forces in order to provide comprehensive joint support to partner countries and regions in advancing their own just energy transition ambitions. One of the key features has been to offer four scalable instruments that can be chosen individually as per contributor preferences, but that taken together follow a holistic logic providing solutions for the private, public and diplomatic domain. Each instrument provides a suit of dedicated advisory services (products) that are backed with standing expertise and enable a rapid deployment across countries and regions. This operating modality ensures an efficient and effective utilization of resources and enables scaling-up of proven approaches. GET.pro has a global reach with a dedicated focus on Africa and Latin America as the continents with the most pressing transformational needs. GET.pro delivers on global, regional and bilateral preferences and programmes of its contributors and partners. The financial and monitoring capabilities of its Programme Support Unit (PSU) thereby ensure an efficient handling of a multitude of funding contracts. While the AEEP has a genuine bi-continental scope, the Green Hydrogen Business Alliance and GET.invest offer their services across countries (complemented by selected country windows), GET.transform provides deep-dive transformation advice to focal countries with a scaling-up of best practice at regional level. The selection of country windows for GET.invest and GET.transform is informed by the fit of its services with in-country needs, the availability of funding and strategic preference of core contributors as well as the scaling potential, i.e. preferably selecting countries where the leveraged impact and comparative benefits of the instruments are greatest.
