Search and filter public renewable-energy grant records across multi-step regional portal navigation

Documented steps

1. Navigate to the regional energy portal homepage and locate the 'Public Records' section in the main navigation menu
2. Click 'Grant Programs' then select 'Renewable Energy' from the dropdown filter options
3. Use the date range picker to set 'Application Period' from 2023-01-01 to present (do not use exact dates that might reveal specific applicant timelines)
4. In the 'Status' filter, select 'Awarded' and 'Under Review' but exclude 'Denied' to focus on active opportunities
5. Click 'Advanced Search' and enter generic keywords like 'solar', 'wind', or 'biomass' — avoid project-specific terms or organization names
6. Set results per page to 50 and note that pagination requires manual navigation through 3-5 pages for complete coverage
7. For each result, click the record ID link to view details, then use the 'Download Summary' button to export a sanitized PDF (never the full application packet)
8. Cross-reference award amounts against the 'Funding Thresholds' table on the portal's FAQ page to identify grants above $50,000
9. Record only the grant ID, program name, award amount, and applicant type (e.g., 'rural cooperative', 'municipal utility') — omit applicant names, addresses, or contact information
10. After reviewing all relevant records, use the portal's 'Print View' option to generate a clean summary without session tokens or internal metadata
