Notice of Intent to Issue Funding Opportunity Announcement: Industrial Assessment Centers
The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) intends to issue, on behalf of the Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO), a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) entitled “Industrial Assessment Centers” (DE-FOA-0001513).
This FOA supports EERE AMO technical assistance activities.
The
goal of the Industrial Assessment Center (IAC) program is twofold:
first, to assist small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), currently defined as having gross annual sales below $100 million, fewer than 500 employees, and annual energy bills between $100,000 and $ 2. 5 million, to increase their energy efficiency, productivity, sustainability and competitiveness; and second, to help address a growing shortage of engineering professionals with applied energy-related skills.
Prospective IACs can demonstrate their capabilities and describe their approach to serve small and medium-sized manufacturers by analyzing the operating characteristics, productivity, and energy, water and waste usage of manufacturing facilities; identifying, quantifying, and recommending specific opportunities to improve energy and water efficiency, reduce waste, and improve productivity; including potential enhancements to cyber security and related information technologies; and reporting the findings to the facility, together with estimates of the energy savings opportunities, implementation costs, and payback periods.
Each IAC will provide extensive training for undergraduate and graduate engineering students in industrial processes, energy assessment procedures, and energy management systems.
IAC Applicants should define how they will maximize the student experience; increase student technical knowledge and business sense; and develop their understanding of key industrial concepts, including industrial supply chains, sustainability issues, and management systems.
This NOI is issued so that interested parties are aware of EERE’s intention to issue a FOA in the near term.
All of the information contained in this NOI is subject to change.
EERE may issue a FOA as described herein, may issue a FOA that is significantly different than the FOA described herein, or DOE may not issue a FOA at all.
Please access the complete Notice of Intent on https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/.
NO APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED THROUGH THIS NOTICE.
Please do not submit questions or respond to this NOI.
Prospective applicants to the FOA should begin developing partnerships, formulating ideas, and gathering data in anticipation of the issuance of this FOA.
It is anticipated that this FOA will be posted to EERE Exchange in March 201 6. The applicant must first register and create an account on the EERE Exchange website.
A User Guide for the EERE Exchange can be found on the EERE website http://eere.energy.gov/financing/exchangeExchange/Manuals.aspx after logging in to the system.
