2010 RFP issued – Environmental & Economic Research

Wisconsin's Focus on Energy Environmental and Economic Research and Development Program (EERD) is pleased to announce $860,000 in grant funding available for 2010 research projects that study the environmental and economic impacts of electricity and natural gas use in Wisconsin. EERD is looking for projects that study the environmental or economic impacts of:

- Renewable energy or energy efficiency initiatives
- Biomass energy production and use to offset electric generation and/or natural gas
- Climate change in Wisconsin due to electricity or natural gas use
- Impact of existing fossil fuel-fired electric power generation on PM 2.5 levels in Wisconsin

Any research organization with a project relevant to Wisconsin can apply for a grant. The EERD Research Forum will evaluate proposals and make funding recommendations. We expect to announce funded projects in January 2010.

Prospective applicants must submit an Intent to Propose form by October 8, 2009 and those invited to submit a full proposal must send it electronically by 12 p.m. on November 11, 2009. The 2010 Request for Proposals, Intent to Prose form and other information can be found on the Focus on Energy website.
