Wisconsin Energy Institute will make approximately $150,000 available for UW-Madison faculty and scientific staff-led support of cooperative research for one and two year projects (with the second year justified prior to award). We will also provide opportunities for travel grants up to $400. We anticipate funding 3-6 projects.

WEI seed grant money is available for a variety of initiatives related to energy. Funds must be used to:

• address critical, emerging and ongoing research
• in issues that have an impact on carbon-neutral energy technologies and policies, including those for solar, wind, geothermal, bioenergy and energy storage
