Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0008960
The Central Asia Energy Fellows Program is a U.S. Department of State initiative, run through the Bureau of Energy Resources (ENR), aimed at strengthening regional energy security in Central Asia as a foundation for economic growth. The program is designed to function as a convening and professional exchange forum that brings together energy-sector stakeholders from Central Asian partner countries to build practical skills and improve decision-making in the power sector. Its core emphasis is on better power sector development and governance, with a strong thematic focus on energy efficiency, clean and renewable energy development, and broader clean energy transition pathways across the region. In practice, the opportunity is centered on implementing capacity-building, advisory support, and technical exchange activities that help participating countries share best practices, develop stronger institutions and policies, and improve how their electricity systems are planned, regulated, and modernized.
This opportunity is offered as a discretionary grant under a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected organization would typically work in close coordination with the Department of State rather than operating fully independently. The activity category is Energy, and the associated CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number is 19.027. The funding opportunity number is SFOP0008960, and the program anticipates making one award, indicating a single implementer will likely be responsible for designing and delivering the full set of fellowships, exchanges, or convenings under the program umbrella.
Eligible applicants are limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. The maximum award amount (the award ceiling) is $296,296, and the program expected to make one award at or below that ceiling. The opportunity was created on May 9, 2022, with an original application closing date of June 24, 2022.
Overall, the grant supports an implementer that can organize and run a structured fellows-style program and related engagements that connect regional counterparts, provide targeted technical programming, and strengthen the policy and governance environment for clean energy and power-sector improvements in Central Asia. The intent is not only knowledge-sharing, but also building durable regional relationships and practical institutional capacity that can contribute to more secure, efficient, and cleaner energy systems over time.Apply for SFOP0008960
