Selected projects will have access to financing instruments, investment partnerships and risk reduction mechanisms. Proposals submitted before September 1 will receive priority consideration.
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) has opened a call for proposals aimed at public and private developers in Central America and the Caribbean for projects that require financial and technical support to move towards implementation.
Initiatives will be considered by either the Climate Investment Platform (CIP) or the Energy Transition Finance Accelerator (ETAF). IRENA says it will prioritize proposals submitted before September 1.
The call covers renewable generation projects, whether connected to the grid or not, either centralized and distributed, as well as projects covering infrastructure associated with generation facilities, electric mobility, green industrialization and supply chains linked to renewable energies.
Eligible technologies include solar photovoltaic and solar thermal energy, onshore and offshore wind, hydroelectric, geothermal, bioenergy, clean transport, green hydrogen and energy production from sargassum.
