The Global Lighting and Energy Access Partnership (Global LEAP) was launched by 10 partners including governments and international organizations to increase global access to off-grid energy products and services through commercial markets. As part of this, $4.5 million will fund the "Lighting India" initiative to provide modern lighting to 2 million people in India by 2015. Global LEAP also aims to establish quality standards and spur product development through awards to improve access to affordable, efficient lighting for those without grid access.
