Tenders are invited for Lebanon Agriculture and Rural Empowerment Activity Annual Program Statement (Aps). Closing Date: Thursday, 04. Jul 2024 Intervention Sector(s): Agriculture The Lebanon Agriculture and Rural Empowerment (ARE) activity, funded by USAID and implemented by Chemonics International through its local branch, Chemonics Beirut S.A.R.L, is seeking grant applications for implementation of the “ Agri-Business Productivity Improvements to Strengthen Food Security in Lebanon - Optimizing Agri-Production Primary Energy Use through Thermal Partition Insulation” activities designed to bolster agri-food production and processing facilities’ ability to invest in improving their agri-business margins that have a clear reduction in operational costs or improvements in sales. ARE's support includes but is not limited to food processors, milk producers, chicken-egg producers, small agro-touristic wineries (producing less than 20,000 bottles per year) providing agro–touristic services at the winery location, and other. The intervention will provide support for agri-businesses seeking to lower their fuel consumption in their daily production process(es), by optimizing their in-factory energy use through the investment in improved thermal insulation. Approximately 35 grants will be awarded under this intervention to assit with the installation of in-factory upgrades that lead to substantial energy efficiency improvements. The total grant amount allocated for this intervention is $200,000. ARE will cover a maximum of $6,000 or 85% of the total system cost for each beneficiary to install thermal insulation to reduce heating and cooling costs for their agribusiness. These grants will be awarded and implemented in accordance with USAID and US Government regulations governing grants under contracts and ARE’s internal grant management policies.
