Green Climate Fund Readiness Support Program
The Green Climate Fund (GCF) has been established to support developing and emerging partner countries in integrating mitigation and adaptation considerations in their development strategies. In particular the GCF shall allocate substantial financial resources for investment projects to support pilot countries to implement their respective strategies for climate resilience and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
The German Government represented by the Federal Ministry for Development and Economic Cooperation (BMZ) has made available funds to support about 10 developing countries in Asia, Central/South Africa, North Africa (MENA) and South America (ranging between 1 and 5 countries in each region; to be determined before the invitation to tender) to become “ready” for GCF fund allocations. This implies among others that existing national implementing authorities are accredited to the GCF, national mitigation and adaptation strategies are in place, the capacities of relevant institutions are sufficient vis-à-vis the tasks entrusted to them and selection criteria for investment projects are defined. The GCF Readiness Support Program is jointly implemented by KfW and GIZ.
The KfW component (Program) shall support national and regional development banks where those institutions are selected by the respective governments for direct or international access. It is expected that this will be possible in about 3-4 countries.
The main activity of the Program however will be the elaboration of Investment Plans in cooperation with the selected pilot countries including the identification of priority sectors, and the establishment of prioritized GCF project pipelines. In order to establish these pipelines suitable pre-feasibility studies will be prepared or existing studies have to be updated/reviewed.
Implementation is foreseen during a period of 24 months from late 2013. The Consultant is required to establish an organizational setup with a core team and sub teams in each partner country and to exercise a stringent Program management to ensure equal and high standards of the inputs of all team members and of the reports to be submitted to the KfW. Expected outputs can be summarized as follows:
— Support programs for selected national and regional development banks with view to their accreditation for direct and international access to the GCF (in about 3-4 countries);
— National investment plans related to projects suitable for GCF financing (about 10);
— National project pipelines as annex to the investment plans (about 10);
— Preparation of pre-feasibility studies and/or update of existing studies (about 30);
— Project reports as defined in the TOR;
— Semi-annual progress reports (about 10 individual reports and 1 consolidated report) Further outputs on request.
It is expected that the Consultant can provide staff/teams of highly skilled and experienced international and local experts to cover all fields related to climate change in general, mitigation and adaptation measures, relevant infrastructure and environment protection as well as social, financial, economic, institutional and legal aspects of such projects. The required input for the Program implementation, including the pre-feasibility studies, during the scheduled implementation period of 24 months is roughly estimated to about 60-80 international expert months and about 250-350 national expert months in short- and long-term assignments.
