We are pleased to announce that today the UK PACT (Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions) programme has launched a new funding opportunity in Colombia within the Just Energy Transition sector. 

The Colombia-UK PACT Country Fund is seeking to extend its support under the [UK-Colombia Partnership for Sustainable Growth](https://www.gov.uk/government/news/colombia-and-the-united-kingdom-renew-their-strategic-partnership-on-climate-and-nature#:~:text=World%20news%20story-,Colombia%20and%20the%20United%20Kingdom%20renew%20their%20strategic%20partnership%20on,carbon%20and%20nature%2Dpositive%20development.) to facilitate Colombia’s Just Energy Transition. The deadline for submitting an Expression of Interest (EOI) is 15 November 2024, 17:00 COT / 22:00 UTC.   

**What are we looking for?**

This Call for Proposals aims to enable conditions for a Just Energy Transition. It seeks to strengthen energy security and resilience through a diversified, cleaner energy matrix and a modernised electricity market, that contributes reducing greenhouse gas emissions, while improving the livelihoods of local communities impacted by the energy transition, fostering green job creation and economic diversification.  The focus will be on three intervention areas:

- **Area of intervention 1: **Support the expansion and deployment of large-scale non-conventional renewable energy projects 
- **Area of intervention 2:** Support the modernisation of the electricity market 
- **Area of intervention 3:** Support the just and equitable phasing out of coal-fired power plants   

**Who can apply?**

- Profit and non-profit organisations can apply, but all projects must be on a not-for-profit basis. If applying as a consortium, the consortium lead can either be a non-profit or a for-profit organisation.   
- Public entities, government agencies and/or departments (including sub-national governments) **are ****not ****eligible to apply either as a lead organisation or partner in a consortium.**  
- All consortia must have at least one local partner. The local organisation does not need to be the consortium lead. A local partner is defined as an organisation that operates in Colombia under a National Register of Legal Entities and includes NGOs, companies of different sizes (large or SMEs), grass-root organisations, community associations, among others.  
- Both local and international organisations are eligible to apply individually for this Call for Proposals. However, international organisations are strongly encouraged to form consortiums with local organisations.   
- Applicants must demonstrate capacities to successfully deliver at least one of the areas of interventions and must provide one clear reference of having successfully delivered a similar project over the last 5 years.
