Good Morning:
Today,
ARPA-E published a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for up to $20
million for the Modeling Enhanced Innovations Trailblazing Nuclear
Energy
Reinvigoration (MEITNER) program. The deadline to submit Concept Papers
for this FOA is 5:00PM ET, Monday, December
4, 2017.
Through
the MEITNER program, ARPA-E seeks to identify and develop innovative
technologies to enable the advanced nuclear reactor design community to
mature
their designs for future commercial deployment. These enabling
technologies can establish the basis for a modern, domestic supply chain
supporting nuclear technology. The MEITNER program targets
transformative technologies that simultaneously achieve lower
construction cost and autonomous operations while increasing safety.
Additional
information, including a FOA summary, the full FOA, and how to find
project teaming partners, is available on ARPA-E’s online application
portal
at the following link:https://arpa-e-foa.
ARPA
E encourages outstanding scientists, engineers, and practitioners from
different organizations, scientific disciplines, and technology sectors
to form
new project teams for the MEITNER program. In addition to the advanced
nuclear reactor design community, the following disciplines and sectors
will also be helpful in advancing the technologies encouraged by
MEITNER:
· mechanical engineering
· computer science
· robotics
· sensors
· civil and environmental
engineering
· chemical engineering
· materials science
We
apologize if this notification has been sent to you more than once; we
are trying to reach the largest possible audience. To that end, please
forward
this email to any colleagues who may be interested. If you or your
colleagues have any questions please submit them by email to ARPA-E-CO@hq.doe.gov.
Sincerely,
ARPA-E Communications
