Uniform Guidance – 2 CFR 200 Updates

In an effort to standardize terminology across the government, EERE is joining other federal agencies in using the term Notices of Funding Opportunities (NOFOs) rather than Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs). You will see both terms in use while we work to update our websites and resources.

Awards issued under these Notices of Funding Opportunity (NOFO, previously Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA)) will adopt the 2024 Revisions to 2 CFR 200. Applicants may review a summary of changes at CFO.gov | Uniform Guidance: Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Flexibilities provided by the 2024 Revisions are not available on existing Federal awards issued prior to October 1, 2024.

EERE Program Information Center Pilot

The Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO) issued a FOA entitled “Oceans of Opportunity: U.S. Wave Energy Open Water Testing (DE-FOA-0003415),” on September 18, 2024, via the EERE Program Information Center website. Interested applicants must register in the EERE Program Information Center.

  DE-FOA-0001268 CONCENTRATING SOLAR POWER: CONCENTRATING OPTICS FOR LOWER LEVELIZED ENERGY COSTS (COLLECTS) Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) Solar Energy Technologies (SETO) 6/25/2015 05:00 PM ET 8/25/2015 05:00 PM ET

DE-FOA-0001268: CONCENTRATING SOLAR POWER: CONCENTRATING OPTICS FOR LOWER LEVELIZED ENERGY COSTS (COLLECTS)

Concentrating Optics for Lower Levelized Energy CosTS (COLLECTS) FOA seeks to further CSP system technologies by soliciting disruptive, transformative projects for the concentrating solar collectors in the CSP plant. These innovative projects will seek to surpass the targets set out in the SunShot Vision Study, enabling CSP to be cost-competitive with conventional forms of electric power generation. Projects will target the design and manufacturing of novel solar collectors with the ability to significantly reduce the solar field contribution to the overall LCOE of the CSP plant, and which have not been previously specifically targeted by CSP FOAs.
