The U.S. Department of Energy Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) often requires funding opportunity announcement (FOA) award recipients to comply with technical and economic validation of their novel chemical, biological, and thermochemical technologies at the R&D, pilot, demo, and commercial scale. To assist FOA awardees, and help applicants better understand the process, BETO has launched a comprehensive set of web resources and guidance to explain the three-phased verification process and team approach used to validate these technologies.
The verification process benefits both DOE and FOA award recipients by:
•Establishing clear metrics for success
•Providing rigorous, independent, third-party technical analysis and risk assessment
