We’re hiring fellows who have a bachelor’s, master’s, or Ph.D. degree and want to jump-start a clean energy future. Our Science and Technology Fellows use their expertise to support solar energy research and development by guiding strategy, designing funding programs, and managing SETO-funded projects. Apply by June 15.
DOE issued a request for information (RFI) to explore sustainable, cost-effective end-of-life practices for photovoltaics (PV) systems and their components, including reuse and recycling. Members of the solar and recycling industries, academia, research laboratories, government agencies, and other stakeholders are invited to submit responses to PVEoL@ee.doe.gov by June 14 at 5 p.m. ET.
On May 4, DOE announced SETO’s Multi-Year Program Plan, which describes its goals for low-cost, reliable electricity and rapid, equitable solar deployment. The goals span cost reduction, equity, manufacturing, reliability, and more, which will inform SETO’s strategic planning and funding opportunities through 2025.
DOE recently announced $5.5 million in funding for Round 3 of the Solar Energy Innovation Network to support solar deployment in underserved communities and seeks proposals from multistakeholder teams to research and develop shareable solutions. Apply for new funding and technical assistance, complete a request form for your topic area, and email it to SEIN@nrel.gov by June 15.
DOE is seeking your input to support the rapid, equitable deployment of community solar and other innovative strategies for low- and moderate-income communities who spend a significant portion of their income on power. Submit your responses by June 1 at 5 p.m. ET.
SETO is also seeking insight on workforce development programs, strategies, and tools to support the development of a diverse and skilled clean energy workforce. Responses are due June 1 at 5 p.m. ET.
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) announced an open call for renewable energy researchers to apply to use the lab’s computing resources. Submit your request by June 7 for a chance to work with high-performance computers. That’s 3,456 gigaflops of speed at your fingertips!
On May 4, DOE announced up to $10 million in funding for one entity to manage and update SolSmart, a program that recognizes local communities for improving their solar practices. Mandatory letters of intent are due June 8 at 5 p.m. ET.
