Today, at Earth Day Texas 2017, the U.S.
Department of Energy (DOE) announced the 38 small businesses that will collaborate with national lab researchers through the
Small Business Vouchers (SBV) pilot. SBV facilitates access to the DOE national labs for American small businesses, enabling them to tap into the intellectual and technical resources they need to overcome critical technology challenges for their advanced energy products and gain a global competitive advantage. Eight DOE national laboratories will receive funding to partner with 38 competitively selected small businesses across the country.
One collaboration in the geothermal area will integrate a solar topping cycle at the
