- Description

MCC�s funding is appropriated by the U.S. Congress and obligated to the Threshold up-front, with no incremental or partial funding. So, when a contract is signed with an MCA Entity, money is already available to the MFK and, for most contracts, invoices are paid directly to Contractors/Consultants/Suppliers by the US Treasury. MFK now invites proposals from eligible consultants for the IPP and Energy Efficiency Project Accelerator and Pipeline Development Consultant: Demand-Side Training, Firm-Level Engagement, and Marketing Strategy activity, implemented by the Millennium Foundation of Kosovo, the selected Technical Assistance (TA) Contractor will work with the KCGF and the PMC to act as a �project accelerator� that will develop the pipeline for the new guarantee window, as well as provide technical assistance to support IPPs to standardize documentation and reach financial close (i.e., through project finance in the form of KCGF-backed loans). Accelerator activities will include providing training to IPPs and other eligible entities to improve their ability to access external financing, marketing the new guarantee product, increasing awareness within the RE sector, and supporting related KCGF branding and communication needs. Collectively, this work will accelerate the pipeline of bankable IPPs, RE projects, efficiency projects and increase linkages with financial sector stakeholders, including the KCGF.
