The Manufacture of Advanced Key Energy Infrastructure Technologies (MAKE IT) Prize aims to catalyze domestic manufacturing of critical clean energy technology components, moving manufacturing facilities from planning to shovel-ready and enabling strategies for vibrant manufacturing activities in communities. The Facilites track invites U.S.-based entities with demonstrated commitment and capabilities in domestic manufacturing to complete and submit the work necessary for a shovel-ready manufacturing facility for specific clean energy technology components, including components related to hydrogen, the electric grid, long-duration energy storage, and carbon capture.

The Manufacture of Advanced Key Energy Infrastructure Technologies (MAKE IT) Prize aims to catalyze domestic manufacturing of critical clean energy technology components, moving manufacturing facilities from planning to shovel-ready and enabling strategies for vibrant manufacturing activities in communities. In the Strategies track, competitors will be asked to develop a roadmap to establishing clean energy manufacturing in their region and get a letter of commitment from an entity interested in establishing a facility in their region.

This FOA will provide funding for foundational R&D activities at domestic institutions of higher education, including Minority Serving Institutions (MSI), to advance marine energy and offshore wind technologies, enabling broader utilization of ocean renewable energy sources through the following topic areas: (1) Publicly Available Marine Energy Data Analysis & Test Platform(s) to Produce Publicly Available Data; (2) Sustainable & Scalable Offshore Wind, Marine Energy, and Aquaculture; (3) Undergraduate Senior Design and/or Research Project; and (4) Open Topic Area.

Through this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), the Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) will provide funding for multi-stakeholder collaborations to reduce material usage, improve installation quality and resilience of PV systems, and address handling of PV systems at the end of life. The project has 2 topic areas, providing a total of $20 million in funds.
