The federal government partners with industry, academia, and research facilities to further the development of geothermal energy technologies. Competitive solicitations issued as Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs) are the principal mechanism used by the Geothermal Technologies Program (GTP) to contract for cost-shared research, development, and demonstration projects. Here you will find information on GTP's current opportunities, for which applications are now being received; past opportunities; and DOE's Loan Guarantees program.
Full FOA documentation can be accessed by visiting FedConnect after reading these instructions for locating the FOAs. To view all current solicitations for the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, visit Solicitations for Business, Industry, and Universities. This list is for information only—it may not be inclusive of all solicitations. Funding amounts and schedule dates are subject to change.
Funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 is now available for application through new FOAs that can be found by visiting Current Opportunities.
