ARPA-E Call for Energy R&D

As part of DOE’s stimulus funding scope, the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) has released a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for projects that have the potential to create technology breakthroughs in how energy is produced, transmitted, used, and stored.

TT Division is leading LANL’s response to this call in coordination with the Laboratory’s Stimulus Project Office. A TT Stimulus Focus Group will review project ideas and support development and coordination of final concept papers to be submitted to DOE. Partner companies and universities must submit concept papers through FedConnect.

LANL PIs were encouraged to submit a brief email outlining project ideas to arpa-e@lanl.gov between Wednesday, May 6 and COB Wednesday, May 13. Concept papers may be submitted up to 8:00 p.m. EDT (6:00 p.m. MDT) June 2, 2009.
