This funding opportunity is closed.

The Department of Energy’s Building Technologies Office (BTO) is seeking multi-year (2 or 3 years) project proposals from national laboratories (‘Labs’) for activities to incorporate into the FY 2016, FY 2017, and FY 2018 Annual Operating Plans (AOPs). Only proposals for which a DOE national laboratory is the prime recipient will be considered for funding; all other proposals will be returned without review. This Lab Merit Review will fund the vast majority of the Emerging Technologies (ET) direct lab work starting in FY 2016, and portions of the Commercial Buildings Integration (CBI) and Residential Buildings Integration (RBI) direct lab work. This Lab Call & Merit Review is meant to solicit and select two- to three-year projects that will be assessed with quarterly milestones, including annual Go/No-Go decision points. BTO may subsequently issue supplemental Lab Calls should other topics or needs arise.
