The Northeast Regional Sun Grant Center has formed a competitive grants program serving the Northeast Sun Grant states.
About the Competitive Grants Program
The Competitive Grants Program has been designed to support research, education and outreach projects in the strategic areas of biologically-based power (BioPower), biologically-based fuels (BioFuels), and biologically-based non-food products (BioProducts). The program serves qualified institutions that address the strategic goals described in the Request for Application (download below) and elucidated in the 2023 Northeast Sun Grant Vision
The Sun Grant mission is to focus the intellectual capacity of the region's universities in partnership with state and federal agencies and the private sector to enhance national energy security, develop market-based climate solutions, and grow the bioeconomy through the development, distribution and implementation of bio-based energy technologies, promote bio-based diversification and environmental sustainability of the region's agriculture and forests, and promote opportunities for bio-based economic diversification in rural communities.
