Opportunity Information: Apply for EPA G2022 P3 Q1

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering the 19th Annual P3 Awards, a national student design competition focused on "People, Prosperity, and the Planet." This grant opportunity supports student-led teams that want to research, develop, design, and demonstrate practical, real-world solutions to environmental and public health challenges. The central idea behind the P3 program is that strong projects should not treat social well-being, economic value, and environmental protection as separate goals. Instead, proposals are expected to show how a single innovation can improve quality of life, create or support economic benefits, and protect the environment at the same time.

The competition emphasizes applying scientific and engineering principles to produce innovative, technology-based designs that can be tested or demonstrated, not just discussed in theory. EPA is especially interested in solutions that respond to needs across the United States, including challenges experienced in small communities and in rural, tribal, and underserved areas. In practical terms, that means projects that are designed with real constraints in mind, such as limited infrastructure, cost barriers, access to technical support, or local environmental conditions, and that still have a clear pathway to deliver measurable benefits.

This is a discretionary grant program administered by the EPA under CFDA 66.516, and the funding instrument is a grant. The opportunity number is EPA G2022 P3 Q1. The maximum award amount listed is up to $100,000 per award, and EPA anticipates making about 20 awards. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with clarification directed to the announcement's eligibility section, which typically means applicants need to consult the full notice to confirm what types of student teams, institutions, or sponsoring organizations are allowed and what documentation is required.

Key dates included in the notice show the opportunity was created on August 10, 2021, with an original application deadline of October 27, 2021. Additional submission and application instructions are referenced as being located in Section IV of the full announcement, which is where applicants would normally find required forms, formatting rules, content requirements, and how the EPA wants proposals submitted. Overall, the P3 Awards are structured to help student innovators move beyond concepts into workable prototypes or demonstrations that simultaneously advance community well-being, economic practicality, and environmental stewardship.
