Enhancing Private Investment for Climate (EPIC)

Department for Energy Security & Net Zero · Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender

Tender information last checkedLast checked 30 Sept 2026, 12:14.

Opportunity overview

Tackling climate change and nature loss internationally is in our national interest. The UK has a long track record of delivering impact and value for money through our International Climate Finance.   Public finance can play a catalysing role in mobilising international private investment into emerging markets and developing economies (EMDEs) to meet the current and future needs on climate, nature and development. The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) is considering options to directly engage international private financiers appraising investments in EMDEs, and options to provide bespoke financial instruments to efficiently mobilise significant volumes of private climate finance.   DESNZ will hold a preliminary market engagement session on Thursday 13 November 2025 between 12pm and 1.30pm to test the mandate and delivery routes and to enable due diligence on delivery options. The final scope and delivery model is yet to be chosen. Should a competitive procurement route be chosen, this would be subject to a separate notice. This session will cover plans for geographic scope, sectoral scope, target transactions and investor types, portfolio expectations and planned timelines. The session will outline how DESNZ will promote financial innovation and financial sector deepening in target markets and will test assumptions and risks.   DESNZ welcomes participation from organisations with a track record of engaging private investors on EMDE-based project-level deals and Funds, private investors with knowledge blended finance transactions and investment barriers in EMDEs, and wider ecosystem players in this space.
