Hydropower Testing Network (HyTN) Round 2 — No-Cost Technical Assistance Vouchers for Small Businesses
Solicitation # BD-011
Idaho National Laboratory, under the U.S. Department of Energy’s Hydropower Testing Network program, is offering no-cost technical assistance vouchers to qualifying small businesses to support hydropower innovation and development. Three distinct technical capabilities are available for selection: HyTN-49, which provides integrated planning, geotechnical analysis, valuation, and optimization for hydropower systems including non-powered dams and irrigation canals; HyTN-50, covering interconnection studies, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and governor performance assessment; and HyTN-73, which delivers hydro power assessments through the HydroSHIELD capability. Each voucher enables collaborative project development between the recipient and INL, with the scope of work tailored to align with the general objectives of the chosen capability. Participation requires registration through the program’s application portal, where applicants must submit a brief project description, state their company’s purpose, and prioritize their top three capability selections. The registration deadline is July 23rd, and all eligible small businesses are encouraged to apply before the deadline to secure access to these no-cost laboratory services. The program is administered by Battelle Energy Alliance on behalf of the Department of Energy and supports small businesses with operations tied to hydropower technology advancement.

Solicitation # NSF 26-510
The National Science Foundation issued solicitation NSF 26-510 on May 22, 2026, for the Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer Phase I, Phase II, and Fast-Track programs. This initiative seeks to develop deep technologies to advance U.S. competitiveness and security, with a specific focus on Energy Technologies. Eligible proposals include those covering new energy sources, power generation, energy storage, electronic systems for mobile and off-grid applications, carbon conversion, and disruptive technologies in conventional natural gas exploration and production. The program also encourages submissions regarding nature-inspired sustainable energy solutions, carbon storage, and the integration of energy technologies with data and computational applications. The total anticipated funding for this program is 210 million dollars. Funding levels vary by award type, with Phase I grants up to 305,000 dollars, Phase II cooperative agreements up to 1,250,000 dollars, and Fast-Track agreements up to 1,555,555 dollars. Additionally, Phase IIB supplements range from 50,000 to 500,000 dollars, Commercial Partnerships supplements are capped at 20 percent of the Phase II award, and Strategic Breakthrough proposals may request up to 30 million dollars. Proposals are evaluated based on intellectual merit, broader impacts, and commercial potential, with a preference for institutions with lower indirect cost rates if merit reviews are equal. Submission deadlines occur multiple times between July 2026 and July 2027. The program limits organizations and Principal Investigators to one proposal each. For SBIR awards, only one PI is permitted without co-PIs. The PI must be at least 51 percent employed by the small business and maintain a legal right to work in the United States. Minimum effort requirements for the PI are one calendar month per six months of performance for Phase I and II, and three calendar months per six months for Fast-Track awards. The process begins with Project Pitches, which are limited to two per company per year and a maximum of three per specific technology.
