FAQ update
What is ELI?
The IFC/GEF Efficient Lighting Initiative (ELI) is a US$15 million
program to reduce greenhouse gasses emissions by increasing the
penetration of energy-efficient lighting technologies. The ELI countries
are Argentina, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Latvia, Peru, the Philippines,
and South Africa. ELI is funded by the Global Environment Facility
(GEF), and is implemented by the International Finance Corporation
(IFC).
ELI began in 1999; the seven county programs will
be shutting down in late 2003, but a Next Generation of ELI will
continue to provide services to support the use of high-quality
energy-efficient lighting. (see below for more details)
