About Electric Power Research Institute Inc.

Electric Power Research Institute Inc. Knoxville Facility Division, operating as Epri, provides specialized research, training, and technical services to federal agencies as a nonprofit research organization, competing predominantly as a prime contractor (80% of recent awards) on full-and-open federal contracts without set-aside designations. A subsidiary division of the parent Electric Power Research Institute Inc. headquartered in Palo Alto, California, the Knoxville Facility focuses on nuclear power, grid modernization, renewable energy, and environmental technology research aligned with energy sector regulatory and operational requirements.

The vendor's customer concentration centers on nuclear regulatory and energy research agencies. The top five customer agencies by potential value account for 98% of combined recent award value, anchored by the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity (2 awards, $1.8 million combined potential value), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Central Office (9 awards, $1.3 million), and NASA Johnson Space Center (6 awards, $655 thousand). The NRC relationship dominates by award count, reflecting Epri's specialized expertise in human reliability analysis, fault tree evaluation, and reactor inspection methodologies; recent NRC work includes a $500 thousand definitive contract for in-vessel inspection training courses (awarded September 2023, completion August 2027), a $186,150 purchase order for software users group memberships spanning human factors and risk assessment tools (awarded April 2026), and a $92 thousand training delivery contract for Technical Assessment Methodology Revision 1. The Army Corps of Engineers work encompasses grid electrification studies, including an $891.2 million enterprise-wide vehicle contract (awarded January 2022, completed October 2023). Epri also holds a four-task-order indefinite delivery contract (NNJ13HB39C) worth $155 thousand in combined potential value, principally used for NASA work. Recent capability examples include a $899.948 thousand Definitive Contract from Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity for climate resilience technology demonstration under the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (awarded September 2024, completion September 2028), and a $47 thousand Department of Energy optical fiber sensor testing contract at Epri's laboratory facility (awarded March 2023).

Activity has fluctuated modestly, with two awards in 2021 declining to one in 2022, recovering to three in 2023 and six in 2024, and one recorded award in 2026 year to date. One award ($500 thousand in potential value) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing moderate recompete exposure. The vendor operates as a subcontractor to two Department of Energy national-security primes: Fluor Marine Propulsion LLC (Consortium membership renewal on Naval Nuclear Laboratory management and operations, modification awarded December 2024) and Consolidated Nuclear Security LLC (Y-12 National Security Complex and Pantex Plant management and operating contract work with subrecipient funding, modifications awarded February and September 2024). Epri also acts as a sub-recipient on a Department of Energy carbon dioxide capture demonstration project with the University of Kentucky Research Foundation (sub-grant awarded December 2024). The vendor's capability portfolio concentrates on research and development (5 awards under R&D—General Science and Technology basic research PSC), technical consulting (6 awards under Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services NAICS), and software and training delivery (5 awards under Software Publishers NAICS, 3 under Education and Training). Service Contract Inventory reporting shows minimal federal services-contract invoicing ($0 recorded in FY2023–FY2024), reflecting the vendor's focus on research, training, and equipment-testing deliverables rather than labor-hour service contracts; SCI coverage at 2 prime records is sparse relative to the broader contract footprint.
