DOE EPSCoR Implementation Grants
DOE EPSCoR is a federal-state partnership program designed to:
- Enhance the capabilities of designated jurisdictions to conduct sustainable and nationally competitive energy-related research through increased human and technical resources, including training of scientists and engineers.
- Advance DOE’s overarching mission by supporting early-stage research and development for a wide range of topical areas across the Department:
- Office of Science: Accelerator Research, Development, and Production; Advanced Scientific Computing Research; Basic Energy Sciences; Biological and Environmental Research; Fusion Energy Sciences; High Energy Physics; Isotope R&D and Production; and Nuclear Physics
- Technology Offices: Cybersecurity, Energy Security and Emergency Response; Electricity; Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy; Environmental Management; Fossil Energy and Carbon Management; and Nuclear Energy
Grants awarded under this program are intended to improve research capability through the support of a group of scientists and engineers, including undergraduate students, graduate students and post-doctoral fellows, working on a common scientific theme in one or more EPSCoR jurisdictions. DOE EPSCoR also encourages, but does not require, implementation grants to work toward building beneficial relationships between institutions in EPSCoR jurisdictions and the DOE National Laboratories.
Each institution is limited to one submission per program area listed below:
- a. Accelerator R&D and Production
- b. Advanced Scientific Computing Research
- c. Basic Energy Sciences
- d. Biological and Environmental Research
- e. Fusion Energy Sciences
- f. High Energy Physics
- g. Isotope R&D and Production
- h. Nuclear Physics
- i. Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response
- j. Office of Electricity
- k. Office of Environmental Management
- l. Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy: Buildings and Industry (including Advanced Materials and Manufacturing; Buildings; and Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization)
- m. Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy: Renewable Energy (including Geothermal; Solar; Water; and Wind)
- n. Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy: Sustainable Transportation (including Bioenergy; Hydrogen and Fuel Cells; and Vehicles)
- o. Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management
- p. Office of Nuclear Energy
*Please note: The submission requirements for this competition differ from the standard competition.
