Funding Information
AmplifyMass provides funding of up to $300,000 for academic or company projects pursuing cost share or adders for a federal/non-federal prime award (such as awards from ARPA-E, NSF, DOE, and USABC), as well as funding of up to $100,000 for academic projects that are not tied directly to a prime grant.
Eligibility Criteria
- Eligible applicants include Massachusetts based startup companies and nonprofit research or academic institutions/universities.
- These applicants are eligible to apply for cost-share support or adder funding.
- “Cost share support” is defined by this program as grant funding that an applicant is seeking from MassCEC that is required by the prime award. In other words, the prime award is contingent upon the applicant contributing a specified amount of funding, called cost share funding.
- For cost-share support, awards are typically a fraction of the required cost-share and the total project cost. For cost-share support, applications must be submitted before the primary funding is contracted.
- “Adder funding” is defined by this program as grant funding that an applicant is seeking from MassCEC that is not required by the prime award but would be used to expand or enhance the clean energy project scope funded by the prime award. In assessing requests for adder funding, MassCEC places special consideration on what the project will be able to accomplish with the adder funding that it wouldn’t be able to otherwise. Adder funding budget items should clearly and directly expand or enhance additional clean energy project outcomes and be linked to project work.
