Energy Consultant

The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) was established as an intergovernmental organization to promote a model of economic growth known as “green growth”. The green growth model integrates variables measuring economic growth, environmental sustainability, poverty reduction and social inclusion. GGGI envisions a resilient world achieved through strong, inclusive, and sustainable green growth, and is dedicated to supporting the transition of GGGI Member countries towards a green growth model. In pursuit of these goals, GGGI aims to design and deliver programs and services that enable new pathways for pro-poor economic growth.

Over the last decade, GGGI has consolidated its role as a trusted advisor to Mexico’s federal and subnational governments, actively working with key counterparts to establish a solid foundation for green growth in the country. In recent years, GGGI has partnered with the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (SHCP) and the Green Climate Fund (GCF), as well as with the United Kingdom through its UKPACT program, to improve the architecture of climate finance in the country and improve Mexico’s access to climate resources by preparing local financial institutions, highlighting the role of development banking, to access GCF funds.

GGGI Mexico has a growing portfolio of programs managing a diverse set of programs and projects focused on four key thematic areas of energy, green cities, water, and land-use as well as the cross-cutting areas of climate change and socially inclusive development, all of which contribute significantly to the potential for achieving green growth in Mexico.

Following these thematic areas, GGGI Mexico requires technical support for the development of a Roadmap for the Implementation of the NDC, in its mitigation component, that will be the basis to define the strategy of the for the Government of Mexico and the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT) for the achievement of the goals set forth in the updated NDC presented at COP 27 in 2022.

To this end, GGGI seeks technical support to review all the information and studies that the Government of Mexico has previously developed to guide the implementation of the mitigation component of the NDC in the Energy sector (Power generation, particularly). As well as technical inputs generated by other organizations such as Mexico Climate Initiative (ICM, as per its acronym in Spanish).

Also, within this context, an energy consultant is needed to support GGGI Mexico in technical discussions with government and other key stakeholders, and for the organization of meetings and workshops.

Objectives Of The Assignment:

Develop technical inputs to prioritize Mexican mitigation projects from the Power Generation sector and identify and compile other viable actions, technically and economically, that will allow Mexico to achieve the objective of reducing GHG emissions by 35% with respect to the 2013 baseline, by the year 2030.

Such elements will contribute to the development of an initial proposal for the mitigation component of the technical proposal for the Implementation Roadmap of Mexico’s NDC (IR NDC).

Deliverables And Payment Schedule:

The consultancy must carry out at least the following activities:
