Expression of Interest for Consultancy Services - Caribbean E-Mobility Fund Technical Advisory Services The Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) wishes to procure consultancy services for the Caribbean E-Mobility Fund Technical Advisory Services. The objective of the consultancy is to provide capacity strengthening to CDB in the development of the Caribbean E-Mobility Fund under the Accelerated Sustainable Energy and Resilience Transition (ASERT) initiative, called an ASERTive. Specifically, technical advisory services will be provided to CDB for assessments, and for guiding, and coordinating the development of the Fund, which aims to promote the shift to electric mobility in the Banks Borrowing Member Countries (BMCs). The consultants key tasks/activities include (but may not be limited) to: 1. E-Mobility Market Assessment and Pre-Feasibility Study - Conduct a comprehensive regional assessment to inform the Funds structure and strategic priorities. This should include segmentation by vehicle type and user group, infrastructure readiness, and emissions reduction potential. 2. Comparative Fund Design Review - Review relevant international and regional climate and e-mobility fund models implemented by Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs), Development Finance Institutions (DFIs), and other partners. Identify best practices and lessons applicable to the Caribbean context. 3. Development of a Green Climate Fund (GCF) Concept Note Prepare a GCF Concept Note aligned with the national climate strategies and priorities of CDBs Borrowing Member Countries (BMCs). The note must meet GCF investment criteria and clearly justify the need for GCF financing to scale the impact of the Caribbean E-Mobility Fund. 4. Design of the Caribbean E-Mobility Fund - Develop the Funds full structure, including governance arrangements, eligibility criteria, operational modalities, and monitoring and evaluation framework. 5. Design of Financial Instruments and De-risking Mechanisms Recommend financing instruments suited to the Caribbean context, such as concessional loans, guarantees, matching grants, or blended finance solutions to de-risk e-mobility investments. 6. Development of Implementation Toolkit - Prepare a comprehensive set of tools to support operationalisation of the Fund, including an operational manual, implementation roadmap, and results framework. 7. Stakeholder Engagement and Donor Outreach - Design and support the execution of a stakeholder engagement strategy. Facilitate consultations with national and regional stakeholders and engage prospective donors to inform and validate the Funds design.
