Description

The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) intends to issue, on behalf of the Wind and Water Power Technology Office, a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) titled “Wind Energy – Eagle Impact Minimization Technologies and Field Testing Opportunities”. This FOA aims to advance the technical readiness of eagle detection, classification, and impact minimization technologies in order to 1) expand the scientific basis of and number of technical options available for further development and testing (Topic Areas 1 & 2), and 2) support the field testing and evaluation of near-commercial technologies (Topic Area 3), which, if successful, will provide wind plant owner-operators with viable and cost effective tools to reduce eagle impact risks and ease regulatory hurdles. The complete Notice of Intent can be viewed on the EERE Exchange website - https://eere-exchange.energy.gov This is a Notice of Intent only. EERE may issue a FOA as described herein, may issue a FOA that is significantly different from the FOA described herein, or EERE may not issue a FOA at all. NO APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED THROUGH THIS NOI. 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 the EERE Exchange website in the near term.
