Opportunity Title:
Clean Ports Program: Zero-Emission Technology Deployment Competition
Funder/Agency:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
Opportunity Number:
EPA-R-OAR-CPP-24-04
Description:
The EPA Office of Transportation and Air Quality (OTAQ) is issuing this NOFO to announce the availability of funds and solicit applications from eligible entities to help ports nationwide
transition to zero-emission (ZE) operations under the EPA’s Clean Ports Program. The EPA’s
Clean Ports Program will fund ZE port equipment and infrastructure to reduce mobile source
emissions (criteria pollutants, air toxics, and/or greenhouse gases) at United States ports,
delivering cleaner air for communities across the country.
The Clean Ports Program will also fund climate and air quality planning activities as part of a separate NOFO – including emissions inventories, strategy analysis, community engagement, and resiliency measure identification – that will build the capacity of port stakeholders to continue to reduce pollution and transition to ZE operations over time.
The EPA’s goals for the Clean Ports Program are to:
Build a foundation for ports across the country to transition to fully ZE operations, positioning ports to serve as a catalyst for transformational change across the freight sector;
Reduce mobile source pollution in near port communities, especially disadvantaged communities; and
Help ensure that meaningful community engagement and emissions reduction planning are port industry standard practices.
Eligibility:
Port authorities
State, regional, local, or tribal agencies
