Title Energy Innovation Hub - Batteries and Energy Storage Agencies United States Department of Energy (DOE) Description Energy Innovation Hubs are composed of large, multidisciplinary teams of investigators whose research integrates basic to applied research and focuses on a single critical national energy need. Batteries and electrical energy storage technologies are pivotal and straddle two major energy sectors: transportation and the grid. For vehicles, new batteries with improved lifetimes and storage capacities are needed to expand range of electric vehicles for a single charge while simultaneously decreasing the manufacturing cost and weight. For the electrical grid, new approaches to electrochemical energy storage can enable inherently intermittent renewable energy sources to meet continuous electricity demand. Today's electrical energy storage approaches suffer from limited energy and power capacities, lower-than-desired rates of charge and discharge, cycle life limitations, low abuse tolerance, high cost, and poor performance at high or low temperatu res. The Batteries and Energy Storage Hub will accelerate the development of energy storage solutions that are well beyond current capabilities and approach theoretical limits. This development will be enabled by cross-disciplinary R&D focused on the barriers to transforming electrochemical energy storage, including the exploration of new materials, devices, systems, and novel approaches for transportation and utility-scale storage. The Hub will provide a critical mass research effort to overcome the current technical limits for electrochemical energy storage to the point that the risk level will be low enough for industry to further develop the innovations discovered by the Hub and deploy these new technologies into the marketplace. To achieve these goals, the Batteries and Energy Storage Hub will foster unique collaborations bridging fundamental scientific research and technology development. The Batteries and Energy Storage Hub will be the fourth such Hub established by DOE. Three Energy Innovation Hubs were launched in FY 2010 Fuels from Sunlight; Energy Efficient Building Systems Design; and Modeling and Simulation for Nuclear Reactors. The Hub will be funded up to a total of $20 million in the first year; up to $10 million of those funds can be devoted to infrastructure start-up for the Hub, including building renovation (but not new construction), lease arrangements, equipment, and instrumentation. It is anticipated that the Hub will be funded up to $25 million per year for Hub operations in the final four years of the award period, pending Congressional appropriations. More Information http://www.grants.gov/search/search.do?mode=VIEW&oppId=141940 Submission Limits An entity may not submit more than one application as the prime applicant for this FOA. If more than one application is received from a prime applicant, DOE will consider only the first application received based on the Grants.gov date and time stamp. The remaining application(s) will be deemed non-responsive and rejected without further review. However, there is no limitation on the number of applications in which a specific eligible entity can participate as a team member/subawardee. Cost Sharing: For-profit entities are required to provide a minimum of 20% cost share for both R&D and D&D activities. This cost share will be based on the portion of the Hub budget proposed by each for-profit entity. For all other non-Federal entities, cost sharing is encouraged, but not required for R&D, and a minimum of 20% is required for D&D activities.

Title USAID University Engagement through Higher Education Institutions Agencies United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Description The President’s Policy Directive on Development (PPD 6) highlighted the importance of partnership, innovation, and science and technology to achieve development objectives. The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is taking a new catalytic approach to solving major development challenges. This involves harnessing the intellectual power of faculty, students, and staff in great academic institutions to define and solve some of the world’s most challenging development problems, to sustain creative, evidence-based multidisciplinary approaches to international development, and to expand the role of science, technology, and engineering to solving complex development problems. Specifically, the Office of Science & Technology (S&T) is seeking creative, science-based approaches that are directed toward the Core Development Objectives outlined in USAID's 2011-2015 Policy Framework, which can be found electronically at: http://www.usaid.gov/policy/USAID_PolicyFramework.PDF Applicants are encouraged to ‘think outside of the box’, using creative practices and methodologies to develop innovations clearly linked to these objectives that are both sustainable, scalable, and would address the developing world’s ability to address these problems. Successful applicants will become part of a networked set of “Centers” that bring creative problem solving, analysis, and engagement to USAID’s core development practice. More Information http://www.usaid.gov/universities Submission Limits Each individual institution center applicant is restricted to two (2) applications. Furthermore, a single institution Center may serve as the lead (primary) on only one application composed of a consortium of institutions competing for a “Consortium level” award. Applications that fail to adhere to this restriction will be viewed as being non-responsive to this RFA and their application will not be reviewed. Applicants are free to form as many inter-institutional collaborations as they believe appropriate and can be programmatically justified. Cost Sharing: The recommended ratio for leveraging resources is 1:1. In accordance with ADS 303.3.10.2, leveraging represents all of the non-USAID resources that are expected to be applied to a project. It may include cost-sharing, but may also include resources that third parties bring to the program without necessarily providing them to the recipient. Thus the recipient is not responsible for any leveraging in excess of the agreed-upon cost share Deadlines Internal Notice of Intent Feb 9, 2012 Notification of Internal Competition Feb 10, 2012 Internal Pre-proposal Feb 24, 2012 Results of Internal Competition Mar 2, 2012 Agency Notice of Intent/Pre-proposal N/A Agency Proposal Apr 3, 2012
