The Grid Innovations Facility and Testing Voucher will connect U.S. small businesses, innovators, and entrepreneurs with the resources, capabilities, and facilities needed to spur advancements in next-generation grid technologies to meet pressing industry needs.
This Voucher Opportunity seeks to provide U.S.-based grid Technology Developers with the testing services needed to increase technical readiness and commercialization potential of innovative electric transmission and distribution technologies (note: energy storage technologies are not in scope). This Voucher Opportunity, developed in partnership between the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Electricity (OE) and EnergyWerx, facilitates matchmaking between U.S.-based electric grid Technology Developers (Voucher Recipients) and domestic Test Facilities (Voucher Providers) with relevant testing capabilities. Once matches are made, OE funds the Test Facilities to provide these testing services to the Technology Developers for projects lasting up to one year.

Voucher Opportunity 12 - Grid Innovations Facility and Testing (Providers) (VO-12)
Opportunity Summary
Description
Opportunity Details
The Voucher Program aims to build bridges between U.S. entrepreneurs, businesses, Technology Developers or other relevant entities and third-party Voucher Providers to advance commercialization and demonstration at scale of innovative grid technologies. Voucher Opportunity (VO-12) includes testing, stress testing, performance validation, and evaluation support for U.S. companies who are currently developing precommercial electric grid technologies.
Vouchers will be distributed as in-kind support, meaning that EnergyWerx will directly reimburse the Voucher Provider for the work they have completed on behalf of the Voucher Recipients. The value of each Voucher will depend on the services defined in the Providers’ capability statements, with estimated values of support services per Recipient ranging from $50k to $250k.
DOE anticipates issuing approximately 16-20 Vouchers.
Applications are currently open for Voucher Providers.
More information about becoming a Voucher Recipient will be announced soon. We encourage you to Join Our Ecosystem to receive updates.
