ConnectWerx, a Partnership Intermediary of DOE in collaboration with the Arctic Energy Office and the Office of Technology Transitions will establish the Arctic Energy Seed Awards which will fund multiple awards to support the execution of projects in the Arctic that focus on the delivery of support, including technical assistance, training towards energy efficiency projects, addressing the energy burden of low-income communities, regional workforce development, and seed funding. Alaska or Arctic-based companies, schools, or other entities are encouraged to apply.
DOE has made several large investments in Arctic clean energy projects. However, sometimes there are gaps in funding for critical discussions, project development, technology testing, siting studies, kick-starting energy research, workforce development, and other foundational efforts which can help optimize and/or lead to larger investments. The Arctic Energy Seed Awards focus on the delivery of support including technical assistance and training towards energy efficiency projects, addressing the energy burden of low-income communities, and regional workforce development. Awards will fund multiple awards up to $50,000 each to support the execution of projects in the Arctic.
