Fondation PVsyst supports practical, field-based projects that expand sustainable development in lower-income countries and, to a lesser extent, Switzerland, with a strong emphasis on renewable energy and technical training. Their portfolio suggests they prefer hands-on partnerships that combine equipment, technical assistance, and capacity building—especially where solar energy, energy efficiency, and vocational training can improve access to basic services and local livelihoods. They appear to work through project collaborations rather than open, broad-based grantmaking, often backing implementers and local partners on specific initiatives in Senegal and other developing-country settings.
Partnership-based, project-specific support with a mix of technical assistance, equipment/infrastructure investment, and occasional operating support. Grants appear to be medium-sized and multi-year in some cases (e.g., around CHF 100,000 over two years), often tied to specific initiatives and local implementation partners rather than an open application pool.
