The International Solar Alliance (ISA), an intergovernmental treaty-based organization headquartered in Gurugram, India, is a coalition of solar-resource-rich countries. It was conceived to address the unique energy needs of its member nations through the deployment of solar energy technologies. The ISA provides a dedicated platform for cooperation among its 120+ member countries, including governments, multilateral institutions, the private sector, and other stakeholders. Its mission is to drive collective action towards increased solar energy use, ensuring energy security, sustainable development, and improved energy access, particularly for low-income and energy-deficient regions.

To further its vision of universal energy access and a just energy transition, ISA’s assembly had approved the establishment of the Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDTF) during its Fourth Assembly in October 2021.



The MDTF is a catalytic financing mechanism that mobilizes donor contributions and facilitates high-impact programmatic interventions aimed at accelerating the deployment of solar energy across ISA member countries. It is designed to reduce aid fragmentation, increase strategic coherence, and serve as a centralized platform for programmatic funding aligned with ISA’s global energy agenda.

In 2025, the Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) was appointed as the Trust Fund Management Agency (TFMA) to operationalize and manage the MDTF. A dedicated Program Management Unit (PMU) is being established to support day-to-day operations, provide technical and strategic guidance and ensure high-quality implementation of MDTF-supported programs across all ISA member countries, including India. The purpose of this Terms of Reference is to hire a highly experienced Energy Transition Specialist as part of the Program Management Unit (PMU).

The MDTF focuses on three strategic pillars:
