This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) program (CFDA 47.084), supports research and development by Casimir, Inc. to demonstrate the technical feasibility of continuous power generation from the quantum field for terrestrial and space applications. The $274,920 award aims to validate numerical analysis design tools that will enable optimization of custom power cells, with the goal of commercializing Casimir's power-generating nanotechnology. The research objective is to develop "custom Casimir cavities" that interact with fluctuations of the quantum field to generate continuous power, which could lead to a paradigm shift in electrical power generation by providing compact, clean, and lightweight power sources. No sub-awards are planned under this project.
