The Multilateral Investment Fund (MIF) has received financing from the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), and intends to apply part of the proceeds to payments under the project Development of an ESCO Market-Project Preparation Grant, for the provision of consulting services. The objective of this consultancy will be providing technical and legal backstopping and strategic advice to the MIF for the design and structuring of an Energy Efficiency and Clean Energy Facility in Colombia. The Facility will be established in the context of a MIF/IDB joint project aimed at fostering the development of a market for performance-based contracts in energy efficiency and clean energy (EECE). The Facility will offer financing for ESCOs and their clients, addressing existing barriers to accessing finance for EECE projects in Colombia.

Interested consultants must provide information establishing that they are qualified to perform the services (brochures, description of similar assignments, experience in similar conditions, availability of appropriate skills among staff, etc).
