IS THIS RFP RIGHT FOR YOU?
The process of technology commercialization is arduous. It requires significant dedication, a willingness to step out of one's comfort zone, and an ability to work with myriad stakeholders to achieve the desired business outcomes. In short, technology commercialization is not for everyone. If you aspire to license your technology or start a company, and are willing to commit the time and energy to leverage NIREC’s investment and ongoing guidance to develop a well-grounded business plan and drive subsequent phases of the commercialization process, you are encouraged to respond to this RFP.
The objective of this RFP is to oversee a competitive process to award funds to the most promising and competitive renewable energy or energy efficiency opportunities.
