Expression of Interest (EOI): Innovation Challenge Fund for pilots/ demonstrations of advanced, distributed urban energy systems in Vietnam
DAI invites firms to submit an Expression of Interest for work to be funded by USAID under the USAID Vietnam Urban Energy Security activity.
Through this Expression of Interest (EOI), USAID Vietnam Urban Energy Security (the Project) is offering support for organizations seeking to pilot/ demonstrate new products, business models or financing models for advanced, distributed urban energy systems in Danang and/ or Ho Chi Minh City, through participation in an Innovation Challenge Fund (ICF). This activity is based on the theory of change that IF the innovative technologies, practices and financing models for advanced, distributed urban energy systems are piloted/ demonstrated, AND successful solutions are supported through an Accelerator or receive other project support, THEN innovations can be commercialized leading to wide scale adoption.
