The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is offering distinct funding opportunities through its Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs for Fiscal Year 2013. These grants are designed to support small businesses engaged in innovative research and development. The available funding tracks include Phase I, which focuses on evaluating the feasibility and technical merit of a concept, and Fast-Track, a combined Phase I and Phase II opportunity. The Fast-Track option leads from concept feasibility directly into prototype development. Applicants pursuing the Fast-Track funding are ineligible to apply concurrently for the standalone Phase I funding opportunity. This initiative aims to advance energy-related technologies by leveraging small business innovation.
