Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0008963

The Central Asia Energy Fellows Program is a U.S. Department of State grant opportunity intended to support stronger regional energy security and economic growth across Central Asia. The program centers on creating a sustained convening forum where partner-country energy professionals and stakeholders can engage in practical, hands-on learning and exchange. Through structured capacity-building, targeted advisory support, and technical exchanges, the initiative aims to improve how power sectors in the region are developed, managed, and governed, with particular emphasis on energy efficiency, clean and renewable energy deployment, and broader clean energy transition planning.

This opportunity was issued by the Department of State, Bureau of Energy Resources (ENR), under the funding opportunity title CENTRAL ASIA ENERGY FELLOWS PROGRAM (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0008963). It is categorized as a discretionary award and will be administered through a cooperative agreement, meaning the U.S. government is likely to have substantial involvement during implementation (for example, in shaping priorities, coordinating activities, or collaborating on program design and delivery). The funding activity category is Energy, and the assistance listing is CFDA 19.027.

Eligibility is limited to nonprofits that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. The program anticipates making a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with an award ceiling of $296,296. The opportunity was created on May 10, 2022, with an original application closing date of June 24, 2022.

In practical terms, the grant is designed to fund an organization that can bring together a cohort or network of energy fellows and relevant stakeholders, then deliver activities that strengthen institutional capacity and technical know-how in the power sector. The intended subject matter includes improving governance and planning in electricity systems, advancing energy efficiency policies and implementation, supporting the development and integration of clean and renewable energy, and enabling a cleaner energy mix over time. The overarching goal is regional: helping Central Asian partners share lessons learned, coordinate approaches, and build durable professional connections that can contribute to a more secure, reliable, and modern energy sector that supports economic development.
