Lot #1The CFA is funded by UK Government’s Department for Energy Security and Net Zero…Planned

The CFA is funded by UK Government’s Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), under the International Climate Finance (ICF) portfolio, as part of the UK Government's £11.6 billion commitment to support ODA-eligible countries to respond to the challenges and opportunities of climate change.

Since November 2020, under the current £12.4m phase of the programme, the CFA has supported around 200 projects across ten countries. Thirty of these projects have since progressed to close deals worth $344m, with more deals expected in the coming months.

DESNZ is currently procuring a second phase of the programme to support at least 800 projects across 16 countries (Brazil, Colombia, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Kenya, Malaysia, Mexico, Pakistan, Peru, the Philippines, South Africa, Thailand, Türkiye, and Viet Nam) until December 2029.

The programme is supported by an independent advisor whose primary responsibilities are to:

  • Provide expert advice on market maturity for CFA countries, availability of bankable projects, and suitability of the enabling environment

to inform country selection process.

  • Provide strategic guidance to in-country processes and wider programme implementation.
  • Facilitate links to relevant financiers, helping secure participation at events.
  • Participate and facilitation in CFA workshops, as required.
  • Participate in the CFA Advisory Board.
