EP Group is set to provide guidance and verification on the eligibility, quality, viability and deliverability of projects within the West of England £100m Green Growth Fund, managed by Amber Infrastructure.
The initiative is designed to invest in the region’s mid-scale infrastructure and growth-ready businesses to help them seize the opportunities of the Net Zero transition.
Scope of Works
EP Group will look to conduct Commercial Due Diligence and Technical Assistance on the proposed Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) for projects being evaluated against the Fund’s output targets.
Previously, ep Group has provided Commercial Due Diligence and Technical Assistance services to Amber for the Major’s Energy Efficiency Fund. As part of these services, ep Group has advised on whether project-specific energy savings forecasts were achievable, examining the project M&V Plan, the project costs, the technology and operational risks, the procurement methodology, the management capacity to deliver the project, the project’s business case and the legal documents.
"ep is delighted to be working with Amber Infrastructure on the Green Growth West Fund. This new fund is part of the growing trend towards place based funds focused on net zero and the energy transition, a trend that ep fully supports. It is also good to be working with Amber again, building on the work we have done with them for the Mayors Energy Efficiency Fund.
