Clean Energy IDIQ N-CPC (ECODIT): Clean Energy Finance Facility for the Caribbean and Central America (CEFF-CCA) CEFF-CCA focuses on helping promising but undercapitalized projects answer core, early-stage technical, business, financial and other feasibility questions that too often derail projects and keep them from securing financing.  The CEFF-CCA will target both utility scale and distributed (e.g., on commercial and industrial buildings, hotel and resort properties) renewable and clean energy projects. Assistance will be provided through grants that allow project developers to carry out legal, technical, engineering and other studies they need to be able to bring their project to bankable status.
