Capacity Accelerator for Tribal Offshore Wind Engagement

From US Department of Energy (DOE)

It is critical that Tribal nations have the capacity to ensure that their perspectives are heard in offshore wind energy decision-making processes that may impact their communities, cultural resources, homelands, and ocean spaces. To support Tribal capacity to engage in offshore wind energy decision-making, planning, and regulatory processes, the Capacity Accelerator for Tribal Offshore Wind Engagement, managed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) on behalf of the U.S. Department of Energy, is offering a $7.1 million prize pool to Tribal nations and collectives. The capacity accelerator is structured to allow applicants to address specific needs and priorities through three phases that seek to develop internal capacity for Tribes and Tribal collaboratives.
