Technology Cooperation Agreement Pilot Project (TCAPP): A Collaborative Model for Clean Energy Technology Transfer (Booklet)

The Technology Cooperation Agreement Pilot Project (TCAPP) is helping developing countries design and implement actions to attract investment in clean energy technologies that will meet their economic development goals, while mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. TCAPP was launched by three U.S. government agencies-the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the U.S. EnvironmentalProtection Agency (USEPA), and the U.S. Department of Energy (USDOE)-in August 1997 to establish a model for climate change technology cooperation with developing and transition countries. This report describes the TCAPP approach and the significant progress made by the participating countries.
