African Transition Acceleration Fund (ATAF)

Compiled from public sources

The African Transition Acceleration Fund (ATAF) is a catalytic infrastructure investment vehicle designed to bridge the early-stage financing gap in Africa's energy transition. Managed by African Infrastructure Investment Managers (AIIM), the fund targets high-impact climate infrastructure projects at their earliest and most critical stages of development. The fund employs an innovative blended finance structure, utilising catalytic capital from philanthropic and development sources to de-risk investments. ATAF focuses on three core thematic verticals: "clean electrons" (renewable energy), "sustainable transport," and "clean molecules" (green fuels), aiming to create tens of thousands of green jobs and significantly reduce emissions across the continent.
