U.S. Department of Energy Announces $100 Million to Support Cutting-Edge Clean Energy Technologies
ARPA-E issued a funding opportunity announcement (FOA) for up to $100 million to support the deployment of novel technologies that can significantly change how communities, industries and businesses reduce emissions, promote energy efficiency, and drive grid modernization. The funding program supports President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda by lowering emissions, generating good-paying jobs, and securing U.S. leadership on clean energy technologies.
The program — Seeding Critical Advances for Leading Energy technologies with Untapped Potential (SCALEUP) — provides further funding to previous ARPA-E awardees whose projects have been determined to be feasible for U.S. widespread deployment and commercialization. SCALEUP selectees will demonstrate a viable path to commercial deployment and the ability to attract private sector investments.
