U.S. Climate Finance

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is investing $4 million to promote clean and efficient energy use, help reduce energy consumption, and enhance conditions for increased public and private investment in Central America's renewable energy plan. Activities supported by this funding will strengthen the capacity of national and regional government institutions to support clean energy programs and projects and to harmonize regional regulatory and trade policy, including the development of the regional electricity market. The program will also finance activities to facilitate investment in regional renewable power generation.
