| Additional Information | A request for pre-proposals is issued annually in July. Specific projects are selected for further review via full proposals. Grants are provided for projects demonstrating the highest value and relevance to current Iowa-specific energy research needs. Past grants have supported research in biofuels, wind resource assessment, photovoltaic research, biomass gasification, energy-efficient livestock confinement ventilation, process manufacturing efficiency, and commercial building HVAC control. New grants are issued yearly so there is no specified program end date. |
