Description
The
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) through the Office of Energy Efficiency and
Renewable Energy (EERE) has released DE-FOA-0001987 entitled “Advanced Systems
Integration for Solar Technologies”.
This opportunity supports the mission of the Solar Energy Technologies
Office (SETO), which is to support early-stage research and development to
improve the performance and flexibility of solar technologies that contribute
to a reliable and resilient U.S. electric grid. The office invests in
innovative research efforts that securely integrate more solar energy into the
grid, enhance the use, storage and dispatch of solar energy, and lower solar
electricity costs. DOE is committed to improving the affordability of energy
technologies and strengthening the Energy Sector’s capability to withstand
cyber and physical threats, including natural disasters. Improving the
strategic location and situational awareness of solar systems can help ensure
continuity of service in the face of widespread and coordinated threats.
Developing innovative approaches to accelerate the transfer of solar system
solutions that will improve Energy Sector resilience is also a priority. Topic Areas/Technical Areas of
Interest:
•
Topic 1.1 R&D and Technology Transfer for solar situational awareness
in strategic locations associated with critical infrastructure.
•
Topic 1.2 R&D, Technology Transfer and Validation of proactive
resilience solutions for critical infrastructure.
