About this file

This is a concept paper template for the 2025 Competitiveness Improvement Project (CIP) solicitation, providing instructions for submitting proposals to the Department of Energy Office of Science's distributed wind turbine initiative. The template requires submissions to be limited to three pages and submitted as PDF documents by January 31, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. Mountain Time to kyndall.jackson@nrel.gov.

The template structure requires applicants to include project title, topic area(s) (up to three for multi-topic proposals), author contact information, and U.S. incorporation status. Key sections to be completed include project description overview, turbine/technology description with supporting graphics, expected project impacts (such as LCOE reduction or product certification), a 21-month project plan, and team composition including internal staff, subcontractors, consultants, test sites, and certification bodies. The template corresponds to a broader solicitation (RFX-2025-10018) that encompasses ten topic areas including prototype design, manufacture, testing, component innovation, system optimization, certification, and technology commercialization.
