Chain Reaction Innovations - Energy Technology Innovation
Solicitation # 6-BB47-P-00203-00
The Chain Reaction Innovations program, solicited under number 6-BB47-P-00203-00 and administered by Argonne National Laboratory on behalf of the U.S. Department of Energy, is designed to accelerate the commercialization of early-stage physical science innovations with potential impact on U.S. energy competitiveness. This opportunity is structured as a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA), not a traditional procurement contract, and is open to individual U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents who serve as the technical lead. Participants gain access to Argonne’s world-class facilities, mentorship, and an ORISE fellowship for up to 24 months, with funding contingent on DOE approval and successful performance reviews. The program consists of two phases: an initial six-month Scope and Planning Phase focused on market analysis and developing a DOE-approved Intellectual Property Management Plan, followed by an R&D Phase conducted on-site at Argonne in Lemont, Illinois. Crucially, applicants must secure a license or option to any background intellectual property essential to their project within one year, or face program termination. Eligibility is strictly defined: individuals with more than $2 million in private equity funding are excluded; current Argonne employees must terminate employment or take approved entrepreneurial leave; and any affiliation with Argonne, UChicago Argonne LLC, or the University of Chicago requires an Organizational Conflict of Interest management plan. Application materials must be non-proprietary and submitted exclusively through the online portal at chainreaction.anl.gov, including a one-page resume and a five-page technical deck. Proposals are evaluated holistically based on the technical strength and outcome orientation of the project leader, the potential economic impact and technical merit of the innovation, and its alignment with DOE’s mission space — with no formal cost or pricing data provided, as the program is an incubation initiative rather than a purchased service. The evaluation does not follow a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable model, instead favoring a trade-off approach that prioritizes innovation, feasibility, and strategic alignment. Access to program benefits is entirely contingent on CRADA execution, compliance with DOE directives on foreign national access, and continued performance through mandatory milestone reviews, particularly the year-one midpoint review.
