The Commercialization Team of the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) works to bridge the gap between research and development (R&D), and venture capital funding and marketing. The team uses multiple strategies, programs, license agreements, technology showcases, etc., to identify opportunities and interest investors. EERE provides joint funding for projects, develops business opportunities through competitive solicitations, and tracks both federal and state incentives. The goal is to increase the rate and scale of energy efficiency and renewable energy technology market penetration.
