What is the process for involving private industry for developing proposals for the competitive portions of ARRA?
The competitive federal funding opportunities are expected to cover a wide variety of topic areas and can vary significantly in design and implementation. The Energy Commission is committed to work with interested stakeholders within our state to assist with third-party proposals and potential cost-share contributions (if funding is available). Formal invitations to participate in Energy Commission cost-share opportunity with federal competitive solicitations are being released as Program Opportunity Notices and available on the Energy Commission’s funding website at [www.energy.ca.gov/contracts/]. Funding opportunity notices will be sent out by e-mail blasts to the Recovery ListServer.
