Advanced Energy Manufacturing and Recycling Grant Program

The Advanced Energy Manufacturing and Recycling Grant Program provides grants to eligible manufacturers, with technical assistance support from NREL.

The Biden-Harris administration, through the U.S. Department of Energy, is investing $750 million from President Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) to strengthen domestic clean energy manufacturing and recycling, create jobs, and bring clean energy technologies to communities historically reliant on the coal industry. An initial $350 million funding opportunity under this grant program is open for applications.
