Opportunity Information: Apply for EPA G2022 P3 Q2
The 19th Annual P3 Awards is a competitive EPA grant opportunity built around a student design competition called People, Prosperity and the Planet (P3). The basic idea is to fund student-led teams that can research, develop, design, and demonstrate practical solutions to real-world environmental and public health challenges. EPA is looking for projects that are clearly grounded in scientific and engineering principles and that result in innovative, technology-based approaches rather than purely conceptual proposals. A strong proposal is expected to show not only a good idea, but also a credible plan to test it, prove it works, and demonstrate it in a way that could be adopted in the real world.
A defining feature of this program is the P3 "triple benefit" requirement. Proposed projects must be designed to do three things at the same time: improve peoples quality of life, create or support economic benefits (such as lower costs, greater efficiency, or new market potential), and protect the environment (for example, by reducing pollution, saving energy or water, or cutting waste). The EPA is explicitly positioning this competition as a response to environmental and public health needs across the United States, including issues faced by small, rural, tribal, and underserved communities. In practice, that means applications are strengthened when they show a clear understanding of a community need, a realistic path for implementation, and measurable benefits across people, prosperity, and the planet rather than focusing on only one of those outcomes.
Administratively, this is a discretionary grant program administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under CFDA 66.516. The funding opportunity number is EPA-G2022-P3-Q2. The agency anticipated making around 20 awards, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $100,000 per award. The opportunity was originally posted with a creation date of August 10, 2021, and an original application deadline of October 27, 2021, with the announcement noting that applicants should review Section IV for detailed submission instructions. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with clarification to be provided in the announcement's eligibility section, which is typical for competitions centered on student teams working through an eligible institution or structured program requirements.
Overall, the P3 competition is best understood as EPA funding to help student innovators move from an identified environmental or public health problem to a designed, tested, and demonstrable solution that can realistically improve lives, make economic sense, and reduce environmental harm, with particular attention to challenges that matter to communities that are often overlooked or under-resourced.Apply for EPA G2022 P3 Q2
