Alliance For Tribal Clean Energy Inc

Tribal technical assistance & project development: - empowers tribal communities by building their capacity to develop successful energy projects that are aligned with tribal objectives. - to help tribes, at their request, to select wrap-around services for clean energy development, including energy planning, grant writing, project financing support, project design, and development assistance. Determine preliminary engineering, environmental, financial modeling, budget, and legal resources needed to screen potential energy opportunities with tribes.- to connect tribes and facilitate respectful and reciprocal relationships with preferred energy development/service providers in the financial, legal, engineering, construction, and supporting industries to help protect tribes' interests through all phases of clean energy planning and infrastructure development.- support the design and execution of a vetting and matching program to provide valuable opportunities for both tribes and service providers to be connected with one another in a way that minimizes the chances that tribes will experience exploitation and provides service providers with cultural education and ongoing support to facilitate respectful and equitable engagements with tribes.- support meetings with key federal government agencies and tribal governments on technical and financial matters (e.g., coordinating the submittal of site plans and project cost estimates for grant applications) to minimize "overwhelm" for tribes and maximize the available federal resources. - respond to technical queries and assist in creating an alliance online resource library which will contain information to help tribal leaders identify appropriate funding programs, navigate application processes, learn about best practices, and more.- capital stack planning app is an app crafted by the alliance to help make this web-based, easy-to-use tool available to interested tribes and provide other financial coaching resources for energy development, as requested by tribes.- provides links for tribes interested in boosting tribal workforce, pre-apprenticeship, and apprenticeship programs as part of renewable energy project development.- streamline the delivery of technical assistance to tribes.- assess the preliminary requirements for potential energy opportunities with tribes, including engineering, environmental considerations, financial modeling, budgeting, and legal resources. - assist tribes in identifying their desired clean energy projects and aligning them with relevant funding opportunities. Provide technical guidance and content for federal grant applications being prepared on behalf of tribes, supporting the streamlining of the grant application process and enhancing the likelihood of securing funding for tribal clean energy initiatives.
