Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0002545
The Department of Energy, through its National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), issued an Opportunity Notice (not a traditional grant solicitation) for organizations that may be interested in partnering with NETL in connection with the FY21 Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) Scale-up and Conversion Funding Opportunity Announcement referenced as DE-FOA-0002396. This notice is essentially a partner-matching or teaming invitation: it signals NETL interest in collaborating with outside parties and provides a mechanism for potential collaborators to reach out, but it does not itself offer federal financial assistance or invite formal grant applications the way a full Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) would.
Administratively, the notice is tracked under Funding Opportunity Number DE-FOA-0002545 and is categorized as discretionary. The listing falls under CFDA 81.087, which is commonly associated with DOE energy research, development, and demonstration activities. The activity area is described broadly as Energy and Science and Technology research and development, aligning with BETO interests in advancing bioenergy scale-up and conversion pathways. Even though a numerical award ceiling of 2 is shown in the source data, the notice also indicates an expected award count of 0, reinforcing that this is not a direct funding competition and should not be read as a promise of awards resulting from responses to this notice.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the notice is open to essentially any type of entity (for example, private companies, universities, national labs, non-profits, state and local governments, or other organizations), subject to any additional clarifications that would have been provided in the full text of the notice. In practical terms, the point is to encourage a wide range of potential partners who have relevant capabilities, technologies, facilities, or project concepts related to bioenergy scale-up and conversion to make contact and explore whether collaboration with NETL makes sense for future efforts tied to the BETO FOA mentioned in the title.
The process described is lightweight and time-bound. The opportunity was created on June 2, 2021, with an original closing date of June 16, 2021. Responses were required to be submitted electronically by email to RIC-STRATEGIC-PARTNERS-May2021@netl.doe.gov. Because the notice is a partnering invitation rather than a funding announcement, the response would typically be expected to communicate organizational interest and relevant capabilities, possible roles on a project team, and areas of alignment with the BETO scale-up and conversion scope, rather than a full budgeted proposal.
In short, this notice serves as a formal signal that NETL was looking to connect with external organizations for potential collaboration related to the FY21 BETO Scale-up and Conversion FOA (DE-FOA-0002396). It does not function as a standalone grant program, does not solicit complete applications for funding, and is best understood as an outreach mechanism to help form partnerships or teaming arrangements that could support future submissions or collaborative work associated with the referenced BETO funding opportunity.Apply for DE FOA 0002545
