The U.S. Division of Power (DOE) Photo voltaic Power Applied sciences Workplace (SETO) has awarded funding to 21 small photo voltaic firms by the Small Enterprise Innovation Analysis and Small Enterprise Expertise Switch (SBIR/STTR) 2024 Section I Launch 2 and Section II Launch 2 funding alternatives.
Funded by DOE’s SBIR and STTR packages, Section I analysis and growth tasks deal with establishing technical feasibility for the proposed improvements. Section I awardees could have the chance to compete sooner or later for bigger Section II awards to fund prototypes or course of growth. The median Section I award is $200,000 for a interval of six months to 1 12 months. Section II awards are $1.1–1.15 million for a interval of two years.
The businesses chosen for Section I awards submitted their concepts for modern photo voltaic applied sciences in agrivoltaics, next-generation energy electronics, photovoltaic system set up and upkeep, and concentrating solar-thermal energy, amongst others.
The Section I awardees are:
- AmpX Applied sciences (School Park, MD)
- Atonometrics (Austin, TX)
- Combustion Analysis and Movement Expertise (Pipersville, PA)
- Ideas NREC (White River Junction, VT)
- DER Safety (Scotts Valley, CA)
- Fastwatt (Clifton Park, NY)
- Maxout Renewables (Livermore, CA)
- Mirai Photo voltaic (Mountain View, CA)
- Optivolt Labs (San Francisco, CA)
- Bodily Sciences (Andover, MA)
- Precision Combustion (North Haven, CT)
- Quantum Energy Methods (Austin, TX)
- Photo voltaic Unsoiled (Durham, NC)
- Answer Spray Applied sciences (Storrs, CT)
- Turbine Monitoring and Assist Providers (Atlanta, GA)
- VIA Science (Somerville, MA)
The Section II awardees are:
- Epower Expertise (Manhattan, KS)
- Mission Energy Corp. (Potsdam, NY)
- Noria Power Holdings (Sausalito, CA)
- Resilient Energy Methods (Austin, TX)
- Sporian Microsystems (Lafayette, CO)
The SBIR/STTR packages encourage U.S. small companies to interact in high-risk, modern analysis and expertise growth with the potential for future commercialization.
