This Amended Determination follows the approval of additional funding, extended period of performance, new teaming partners, and new project milestones to support the project team's small-scale research and development activities of new biological photosynthetic systems that employ sunlight from previously under-utilized or inaccessible regions of the solar spectrum, such as near-infrared light (NIR), to produce chemical biofuel.
