DOE announces $72 Million for Small Business Research and Development grants.
We’re very excited to share that we’ve been awarded the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant to support research and development on HydroForecast Long-term.
On July 10th, 2023, the DOE announced its awardees for its grant to support small business that pursue scientific, clean energy, and climate research and development projects. This grant is a part of the Biden-Harris administration's effort to achieve a carbon-free grid by 2035 and net-zero emissions by 2050.
As climate change intensifies and creates more uncertainty in future water availability, decision makers in energy and water lack accurate, easy to access information. HydroForecast Long-term uses industry leading machine learning technology to create actionable water supply information out to the year 2100. The outcomes will help inform a secure water supply and clean energy grid by improving the data and tools teams use to make investment, mitigation, and adaptation decisions decades into the future.
