Send requests to e-mail: sbir-sttr@science.doe.gov. Applicant must: 1) provide Phase I award number, contact information for the Phase I Contracting Officer (or Grants/Agreements Officer); 2) Phase I FOA number and topic; and 3) the DOE Phase II topic number.

Description: The purpose of an Initial Phase II grant is to perform the research and development (R&amp;D) required to meet the DOE objectives stated in the topic and subtopic of the Phase I FOA. In addition, it is intended that the small business grantee would be in a position to pursue commercial applications of the R&amp;D at the end of Phase II. In many cases, Phase II results in a prototype, product, or a working process that can be demonstrated to a potential investor or customer (either in the private sector or in the Federal government, including the DOE).This FOA is supplemental to the FY 2019 SBIR/STTR Phase I Release 2 FOA (DE-FOA-0001941); therefore, general information already provided in the Phase I FOA also applies to this Phase II process.
