This funding opportunity addresses three topic areas. Each topic area consists of multiple subtopics. DOE intends to fund the applications with the greatest chance of helping achieve the goals and mission of EERE. EERE may award an entire application or any part of an application at a funding level that will be negotiated with the applicant.
- Topic Area 1: Advanced Materials
- Topic Area 2: Advanced Processes
- Topic Area 3: Modeling and Analysis Tools for Materials and Manufacturing
Please review the full funding opportunity to identify the topic and sub-topic area appropriate to your internal Letter of Intent.
Amount varies by proposal tier level
