Puerto Rico's Energy Landscape The territory's energy sector is characterized by a reliance on imported fossil fuels, with limited renewable energy capacity. However, the territory has significant renewable energy potential, including solar and wind resources. How Funding Supports Puerto Rico's Energy Transition Funding will support projects that address the territory's energy development needs, including infrastructure investments, workforce training, and research and development initiatives. Successful applicants will demonstrate a clear understanding of the territory's energy sector and a commitment to supporting its transition to renewable energy.

The territory's infrastructure constraints, including limited transmission capacity, also pose significant challenges to renewable energy development. The local economy is heavily reliant on energy-intensive industries, making energy security a critical priority.
