The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Solar Energy Technologies Program (SETP or Solar Program) posts current and past funding opportunities for all program areas, including research and development (R&D), market transformation, and systems integration projects. In addition, links to related opportunities from DOE national laboratories and other federal agencies are available.

In carrying out its vision and mission, the federal Solar Program conducts a broad portfolio of activities to make electricity from solar technologies more cost competitive with conventional forms of electricity.

This open, competitive solicitation process is designed to meet the top technology needs identified by industry's roadmaps. SETP funding opportunities encourage collaborative partnerships among industry, universities, national laboratories, federal, state, and local governments and non-government agencies and advocacy groups. Solicitations are also available in non-technical areas to help remove marketplace barriers for new technologies.

Funding opportunities are available for photovoltaics, concentrating solar power, systems integration, and market transformation activities. SETP provides opportunities for both financial and technical assistance.
