DOE Announces $27.5M Voucher Program to Support Innovative Energy Technologies
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED), in collaboration with Office of Technology Transitions (OTT), and Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), have announced a Voucher Program to provide $27.5 million in commercialization support to organizations that have a role in bringing innovative energy technologies to market nationwide.
Funded as part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law as part of the Technology Commercialization Fund (TCF), the Voucher Program leverages DOE’s recent partnership intermediary agreement with ENERGYWERX. ENERGYWERX will work directly with program participants and facilitate the third-party support needed to accelerate the commercialization of their clean energy technology.
This program will lower barriers that industry, utilities, technology developers, small businesses, tribal, state, and local governments, and other organizations from underrepresented communities may face accessing commercialization facilities or obtaining expensive third-party subject matter expertise needed to advance their technologies, business, or energy projects to the next level.
The program will open for submission during the late summer of 2023. Sign up for updates and announcements at the ENERGYWERX website.
