Energy Funding Matrix
Unleashing American energy has become a key focus of the current administration. Meanwhile, some opportunities from earlier pieces of legislation, such as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) which created dozens of grant, loan and financing programs for renewable energies, are still available. These opportunities were sourced across agencies and collected in a central location to ensure you find the relevant grant, loan, or financing program that fits your organization’s energy goals. MLS and Mintz have developed a funding matrix that serves as an aggregate resource to help you leverage federal dollars in your energy efforts. This matrix is updated on a bi-weekly basis.
| Opportunity Type | Opportunity | Federal Office | Technologies | Description | Submission Deadline | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Notice of Intent | Concentrating Solar Flux to Heat and Power | Solar Energy Technologies Office | Clean Energy, Solar | The intended FOA will support building a clean and equitable energy economy and addressing the climate crisis. The FOA will advance the Biden Administration’s goals to achieve carbon pollution-free electricity by 2035. SETO anticipates that the FOA will seek RD&D projects in three topic areas. Technologies in each area may support a variety of concentrating solar-thermal (CST) forms including CSP, SIPH, and high-temperature solar-thermal reactors. Each topic area focuses on scaling and maturing impactful technologies for specified CST subsystems. EERE planned to issue the FOA in March 2024, but no FOA has been released yet. |
