The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy's (EERE's) Technology-to-Market Program (Tech-to-Market) has announced the availability of up to $4.2 million for the Innovative Pathways Funding Opportunity (DE-FOA-0001703).

Tech-to-Market's Innovative Pathways Funding Opportunity seeks new ways to alleviate some of the common structural challenges facing promising new energy technologies on the pathway to market. Overcoming these common challenges will help bolster U.S. leadership in energy innovation, capturing the associated economic benefits and ensuring affordable and reliable American energy. 

Rather than funding individual technology solutions, Tech-to-Market seeks to fund mechanisms that create more efficient pathways to market for clean energy technologies.
