Lewis-Burke Associates had provided a report about Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy's (ARPA-E) new FOA for its Vision OPEN 2024 program to fund up to 50 clean energy technology projects. Unlike ARPA-E’s standard technology program solicitations, which are narrowly focused on specific topic areas, the Vision OPEN 2024 is targeted towards achieving a broader sustainable energy and carbon transition. ARPA-E plans to allocate $150 million and anticipates funding 30-50 awards under the FOA. Individual awards may vary between $250,000 and $10 million with an average award size of $3 million. The first deadline for questions is July 8, 2024 at 5:00 PMET. Concept Papers are due by July 16, 2024 at 9:30 AM ET. More information on the Vison OPEN goals and priority technology areas can be found in the attached analysis.
