81317105-Lot 1: Project Documentation Development

Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH

GET.invest is a European programme that mobilises investment for clean energy in developing countries. We support project developers and companies towards investment readiness and link them with financiers. In collaboration with many stakeholders in the sector, we also provide a range of other services to complement this effort. GET.invest aims to substantially increase the volume and pace of investment, to contribute to building sustainable energy markets, and to thus help meet the twin challenge of sustainable energy and climate change. Since 2022, we power the Team Europe One Stop Shop for Green Energy Investments, an access point for information about and facilitated access to European support and financing instruments for energy projects and companies in Africa. GET.invest is hosted on the multi-donor platform GET.pro, implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, and co-funded by the European Union, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Austria. The proposition of GET.invest to a) develop projects to a status of bankability and b) introducing them to financiers and investor frequently requires supplementary advisory in specialised fields of expertise which are out of the scope for the existing access-to-finance advisory facilities. Therefore GET.invest creates two (2) facilities as a complementary support modality to the existing suite of coaching and advisory services of GET.invest Finance Access Advisory. The two respective sublots of this tender are as follows: Project Documentation Development/ PDD: The goal is to provide eligible projects with key investment-grade project documents required to validate the technical and commercial viability of projects, and often generated from studies, assessments and evaluations. Legal Support Services / LSS: The goal is to directly support GET.invest's overarching objective of accelerating clean energy investment by contributing well-structured legal agreements, advice on the legal structure of clean energy deals, and compliance with relevant regulations are essential for mitigating risks and ensuring project/business success In terms of thematic and geographic scope, this service applies to all clean energy market segments under GET.invest mandate (here). Geographically, while GET.invest currently is active mainly in SSA in addition to some activities in the Pacific and Caribbean, the programme is at initial stages of expanding to other regions such as Central and Latin America. "Project Documentation Development" and "Legal Support Service" are often closely correlated and can be complementary to each other or offered independently. The two services can collaborate on certain documents, if need be, provided the roles remain additional and clear.
