GRANTS & CONTRACTS
Inventions and Innovation (I&I) – Part of the U.S.
Department of Energy’s Industrial Technologies Program
(ITP), provides grants to independent inventors and small
companies with sound ideas for socially beneficial projects
and energy efficiency technologies. This assistance is provided
at two levels: Up to $50,000 for technologies in early-stage
development and up to $250,000 for technologies approaching
the point of prototype.

At present, I&I itself has no funding
for its activities in fiscal year 2008, so
it has announced no upcoming funding
opportunity solicitations. I&I accepts
proposals only during open solicitations.
Please continue to visit the I&I website to
check for information about any upcoming
solicitations from other sources.
FEDERAL PROGRAMS
Much of the work of the Department of Energy’s Office
of Science (SC) (http://www.science.doe.gov/) is supported
through grants and contractual vehicles. This work is
processed through the Office of Science Grants and Contracts
Division (GCD) (http://www.sc.doe.gov/grants/grants.html),
which serves as the principal acquisition, financial assistance
(grants and cooperative agreements) and contract/grant
management advisor to the Director of Science. The GCD
provides independent analyses, advice and recommendations
on procurement and assistance actions initiated by the SC;
identifies problem areas, opportunities and management
issues and makes recommendations; serves as the SC focal
point in developing positions and responses to proposed
Federal and DOE procurement and assistance regulations
and business management policies and procedures; provides
advice and guidance and serves as the SC contact point with
DOE field offices, laboratories, universities, contractors,
grantees and other Government agencies on SC policies and
strategies with respect to acquisition, financial assistance and
contract/grant management issues.

The department’s Office of Nuclear Energy (http://
www.ne.doe.gov/) is a competitive peer-reviewed program
to provide grants allowing nuclear engineering faculty
and students to conduct innovative research in nuclear
engineering and related areas. The awards run from one
to three years and are granted in eight separate technical
areas related to nuclear engineering: reactor physics, reactor
engineering, reactor materials, radiological engineering,
radioactive waste management, applied radiation science,
nuclear safety and risk analysis, and innovative technologies
for next generation reactors, space power and propulsion, or
