Funding
NIREC awards funds to support the pre-commercialization of clean energy technologies:
- Technology Development
- Pre-commercialization Services
- Business Planning
Funds are awarded competitively via a stringent review process conducted by NIREC's Technology Commercialization Advisory Board. Calls for proposals are announced semi-annually year.
Selected projects are expected to fully engage in the EiR Program and aspire to the development of a well grounded and compelling Business Package. A Business Package is a set of documents that sets the stage for taking the technology to the next level.
Join the NIREC mailing list to receive the NIREC newsletter, Innovation Insights, and notifications when requests for proposals are announced.
“NIREC has established a unique partnership program that combines collaborative research in renewable energy with critical funding support to bridge the gap between academic research and commercialization."
-Dr. Barry Klein, Vice Chancellor for Research, UC Davis
