Description
The Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment at Princeton University administers this fund to advance innovative energy research while fostering corporate collaboration and partnerships. It supports work connecting energy research with decarbonization, infrastructure, data and information, materials, devices, systems, storage, and other areas with clear relevance to sustainable energy conversion, use, and management.
The Fall 2026 call accepts Research-tier proposals only. Collaborative, interdisciplinary, forward-looking projects involving multiple faculty and highly engaged corporate partners are encouraged. Research can combine enabling technologies, systems modeling, and policy and decision-making approaches. Particular interest is given to projects addressing the Center’s research initiatives, spanning renewable energy, industrial decarbonization, buildings and transportation, carbon capture, water and resources, and climate resilience.
