8. “When the Shell Foundation was established back in 2000, we
believed that a combination of private sector actors
(philanthropists, social investors, big businesses and commercial
funders) would be able to catalyse and scale market-based
solutions to global challenges such as energy access. The
intervening years have shown that, while pioneer social enterprises
are needed to tackle these problems at scale, they alone will be
insufficient… We will need many thousands of inclusive businesses
adopting similar models to make any type of dent on challenges
that affect half the world’s population”.
Shell Foundation on Accelerating Access to Energy

9. Despite successes,
challenging questions remain
1. Can private sector approaches reach marginalised
communities?
2. Do PPPs reinforce or weaken the role of the public sector?
3. Evidence of impact?

10. Conclusion
1. Ownership and involvement of all partners is important,
including ‘4th P’.
2. PPPPs need flexibility to respond and adapt to complexity.
3. Need large-scale and long-term impacts, with changes at
an industry or market system level.
4. Outstanding questions
a) Can private sector approaches reach marginalised
communities?
b) Do PPPs reinforce or weaken the role of the public
sector?
c) Evidence of impact?
