The lack of coordination among decentralized clean energy access players can result in duplication of efforts and unintended sector fragmentation. To overcome these challenges and support enterprises working to provide energy access solutions, CLEAN was established. CLEAN is an all-India representative organisation launched in 2014 with a clear mandate to support, unify and grow the decentralised renewable energy (DRE) sector in India. CLEAN aims to bring together diverse stakeholders across India working to improve energy access for the rural and urban poor using clean energy solutions. The network currently has 111 member-organisations that offer a range of solutions across solar, hydro, biomass and wind technologies and at scales ranging from portable products to standalone systems, and community level installations.
