Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0002670
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Science, Nuclear Physics (NP) program released this discretionary grant opportunity, titled "FY2022 Research and Development for Next Generation Nuclear Physics Accelerator Facilities" (Funding Opportunity Number DE-FOA-0002670), to support research and development focused on transformative accelerator R&D. The central aim is to advance accelerator technologies that are relevant to today’s nuclear physics accelerator facilities or to the next generation of facilities, with the broader purpose of speeding up discovery science and delivering public benefit through improved scientific capability.
This funding call falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category (CFDA 81.049) and uses a grant as the funding instrument. It is intentionally geared toward accelerator-focused R&D rather than routine operations or incremental upgrades, emphasizing efforts that can meaningfully shift performance, capability, reliability, or cost effectiveness for nuclear physics accelerators. In practice, this kind of opportunity typically targets high-impact concepts, new technical approaches, and enabling technologies that could help facilities reach higher beam quality, greater intensity, better efficiency, improved stability, or new modes of operation that expand the scientific reach of nuclear physics research.
Applicants were not restricted by institution type under the published eligibility field (listed as "Unrestricted"), meaning a broad range of organizations could seek support, such as universities, national laboratories, nonprofit research institutions, and potentially for-profit entities, subject to standard DOE financial assistance rules. The opportunity was issued by the DOE Office of Science, indicating the program’s alignment with federally supported fundamental research priorities and the long-term R&D pipeline needed to keep U.S. accelerator-based nuclear physics capabilities competitive and scientifically productive.
Key administrative details include an original application closing date of April 8, 2022, and a stated award ceiling of $2,000,000 per award. The posting also listed "Expected Awards:" but did not provide a number in the provided source text, so the anticipated count of awards cannot be determined from the excerpt. The opportunity was created on February 10, 2022, placing it within the FY2022 funding cycle and aligning with DOE’s typical schedule for competitive R&D solicitations.
In summary, this FOA invited proposals for accelerator R&D that could significantly improve or enable current and future nuclear physics accelerator facilities, with emphasis on transformative technical progress that accelerates scientific discovery and provides downstream benefit to the public through stronger research infrastructure and expanded scientific capability.Apply for DE FOA 0002670
