Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS CRI GR002

The U.S. Department of State's Regional Environmental Hub for Central America and the Caribbean is inviting applications for grants aimed at developing pilot projects in Costa Rica that explore the use of smart grid technologies alongside small-scale renewable energy systems. Two separate grants of up to $80,000 are available for projects in the Greater San Jose metropolitan area and the Guanacaste region, or a single grant of up to $160,000 for one project encompassing both areas.

These projects fall under the Energy and Environmental Security Initiative, part of the Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas. The goal is to demonstrate innovative technologies and encourage local and regional authorities to address regulatory challenges that hinder investment in clean energy and smart grid systems. Proposals that integrate technology with public education and outreach, as well as partnerships with public or private entities, are highly encouraged. More detailed application instructions can be found in the downloadable Application Package from the Hub's site.
