Overview
The Project Preparation Facility (PPF) Service is one of the two PPF implementation modalities and seeks to simplify the delivery of project development activities approved under the PPF by alleviating the administrative burden borne by Accredited Entities (AE) and Project-specific Assessment Approach (PSAA) Applicants.
32 firms have been selected by the Green Climate Fund (GCF) via a competitive procurement process to deliver such project development activities directly for accredited entities, constituting the GCF’s PPF roster. Those firms have been selected for their demonstrated experience, expertise and knowledge in the development of climate investment projects in developing countries and in GCF results areas.
Under the PPF service modality, upon approval of the PPF application, a GCF-led selection process will deploy one firm to work with the AE or PSAA applicant directly to conduct requested project preparation activities. The AE and the PSAA applicant remain accountable to the GCF for quality assurance of deliverables and submission of the funding proposal to the GCF.
A list of the 32 firms selected for the GCF’s PPF roster is available below.

WSP USA
WSP and its subconsultants, Climate Horizons and Sidona Green Ltd. (the WSP team), have worked on numerous successful GCF Concept Note and Funding Proposal assignments for public and private Accredited Entities seeking GCF financing. The WSP team has experience across all the mitigation and adaptation results areas and has delivered: climate financing gap and needs narratives, additionality narratives and evidence; emissions, physical climate risk vulnerability, and community and natural capital baselines; GHG reduction and beneficiary impacts estimates; market analyses of opportunities and investment pipelines; stakeholder engagements and delivery of NOLs; social, environmental, and gender impact and management plans; fund operation guides and project selection tools; and financial models. The WSP team has been involved in successive GCF review rounds and knows the GCF process steps, guidance materials, protocols and templates to steer Funding Proposals from early development to Board approval.
WSP is headquartered in Canada and offers a vast global footprint of 600 offices in 50 countries across all world regions. As one of the largest engineering, environmental, and advisory services firms in the world, there are no programmatic or financed outcomes across the 8 GCF Results Areas where the WSP team lacks technical or scientific expertise to shape project design or manage and improve impacts.
