UK Climate & Energy Connect - External Business Partner
Department for Energy Security & Net Zero
Scope as published
The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) intends to appoint an external delivery partner to support UK Climate & Energy Connect, a demand-led technical assistance facility that provides differentiated UK public-sector climate and energy expertise to priority partner countries, helping to strengthen their institutions, policies, regulatory frameworks and technical capability. The delivery partner will work alongside DESNZ to help transform UK public-sector expertise into products and events that support developing country partners to accelerate their climate and energy transitions. This is expected to include designing and delivering capacity-building activities such as workshops, study visits and peer-to-peer learning; supporting the design of learning and training materials and other knowledge products; and monitoring and reporting on programme delivery. The delivery partner will also provide the supporting logistics for these activities, including delegate travel, accommodation and venues. DESNZ and other UK public-sector organisations will provide the specialist climate and energy expertise. The delivery partner will work with these technical experts, who will hold seperate agreements with DESNZ, to support developing countries through short term technical assistance and longer term partnerships. The delivery partner will draw on the expertise of UK public sector organisations to deliver their activities but will not hold a direct contractual relationship with them. DESNZ currently expects to appoint a single organisation to coordinate these services, with the successful supplier able to use specialist subcontractors where additional expertise or local capability is needed. The contract may include the option to expand the learning offer to a full curriculum in the future, if there is sufficient demand and funding available.
