DE-FOA-0002582 PVRD FOA
DE-FOA-0002582 PVRD FOA:
This FOA seeks to fund projects to reduce photovoltaics hardware costs and environmental impacts; and increase perovskite module performance.
These research areas will support increased photovoltaics deployment needed to meet the Biden administration’s goal of
a carbon emissions free electricity sector by 203 5. The FOA will have two topics:
• Topic 1 seeks to fund 2-3 year long research projects at a maximum of $ 1. 5M each project in federal funds to produce low-cost, high throughput photovoltaics module designs and processing methods to reduce the environmental burden, materials usage and vulnerability in the metallization and end-of-life handling of photovoltaic modules to support the transition to a decarbonized electricity system.
• Topic 2 solicits applications for projects that will bring together teams of researchers from multiple institutions and/or companies to understand and address the major issues in perovskite solar cell devices that limit the durability, scale-up, and efficiency.

Additional Information of Eligibility:
Topic Area 1 Eligibility Restriction: DOE and National Nuclear Security Agency (NNSA) Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs) and national laboratories are not eligible to apply as prime recipients and may be included only as subrecipients on applications in Topic Area 1.
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.
