Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) and the Office of Economic Impact and Diversity (ED) on enabling an

understand the barriers to entry to DOE funding opportunities and other forms of assistance for first-time applicants,
people and organizations from underrepresented communities, underserved and frontline communities, and from
other non-traditional backgrounds, as well as understanding programmatic, operational, or other internal measures
that DOE can implement to remove these barriers. Measures may encompass application support services for
funding opportunities, incubation and acceleration services for entrepreneurship; and other measures to support a
just and inclusive innovation ecosystem. This RFI is not aimed at policy recommendations that require changes in
the law, but those that DOE can implement using its existing authorities.
