Additional Information of Eligibility:
To be considered for substantive evaluation, an applicant‘s submission must meet the criteria set forth below.

If the application does not meet these eligibility requirements, it will be considered ineligible and removed from further evaluation.

The eligibility requirements under Section III.A of this section apply to all applicants of this FOA, except: Topic Areas 1 and 8 Eligibility Restriction: DOE and National Nuclear Security Agency (NNSA) Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDC) and national laboratories are not eligible to apply as prime recipients and may be included only as subrecipients on applications for Topic Area 1: Photovoltaics Hardware Research and Topic Area 8: Small Innovative Projects in Solar (SIPS): PV and CSP.

For Topic Areas 1 and 8, the scope of work performed by the prime recipient shall not be less than the scope of work performed by the subrecipients who are ineligible to be prime applicants, as measured by the total project costs.

The requirement for the prime recipient’s share of total project costs can be met with the prime’s percentage being greater than the individual contribution of each subrecipient even if the prime applicant’s share is less than 50% of the scope of work.

For example a project allocation of 40% prime applicant and three subapplicants each utilizing 20% of the budget is allowable.

Topic Area 4 Eligibility Restriction: Eligibility is restricted to for-profit entities as the prime recipient of awards under Topic Area 4: Innovations in Manufacturing: Hardware Incubator.

The reason for this restriction is that SETO believes for-profit entities are the entities most likely to achieve the topic’s required objectives, as they are the only entities with the capacity to rapidly commercialize new technologies related to innovations in manufacturing.

For Topic Area 4, the scope of work performed by the prime recipient shall not be less than the scope of work performed by the subrecipients who are ineligible to be prime applicants, as measured by the total project costs.

The requirement for the prime recipient’s share of total project costs can be met with the prime’s percentage being greater than the individual contribution of each subrecipient even if the prime applicant’s share is less than 50% of the scope of work.

For example a project allocation of 40% prime applicant and three subapplicants each utilizing 20% of the budget is allowable.
