Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas Projects in Select Countries: Department of State, Western Hemisphere Affairs Bureau, invites organizations to submit proposals outlining program concepts and capacity to advance the Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas (ECPA), which promotes cooperation on renewable energy, energy efficiency, cleaner fossil fuels, infrastructure, energy poverty, sustainable land use and forests, and adaptation issues in Canada, Latin America, and the Caribbean. At the 2009 Fifth Summit of the Americas in Trinidad and Tobago, President Obama invited all Western Hemisphere governments, private sector stakeholders, civil society, and international organizations to join ECPA to deepen collaboration in the Americas on energy security and climate change. For more information, please visit www.ecpamericas.org. The Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs objectives in supporting these efforts are to strengthen policy and regulatory frameworks in support of clean energy; accelerate the uptake and deployment of renewable and energy efficient technologies; promote regional cooperation and integration; fight energy poverty by increasing access to modern energy services; advance countries abilities to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation; and promote resilience to the impacts of climate change on vulnerable countries. Selected applicants will be required to provide summaries of their activities and updates to the ECPA website at www.ecpaamericas.org, a clearinghouse managed by the Organization of American States in order to disseminate information about ECPA activities.
