DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
 

Grant Award to University of Texas at Austin

AGENCY: Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of Noncompetitive Financial Assistance Award.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), pursuant to the DOE 
Financial Assistance Rules, 10 CFR 600.7, is announcing its intention 
to award a grant to the University of Texas at Austin, for continuing 
research efforts in support of the DOE Office of Building Energy 
Research programs. The project seeks to improve solar domestic hot 
water systems.

ADDRESSES: Questions regarding this announcement may be addressed to 
the U.S. Department of Energy, Golden Field Office, 1617 Cole Blvd., 
Golden, Colorado 80401, Attention: Cidney L. Bippus, Contract 
Specialist, 303-275-4793.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed basic research will contribute 
to the DOE mission by assisting in the development of improved solar 
water heating technologies for use in buildings.
    Successful completion of this research would advance the goal of 
wide commercialization of solar water heating systems. Deploying these 
technologies will reduce energy use in buildings which, in the U.S., 
accounts for about 40% of annual national energy consumption.
    DOE has performed a review in accordance with 10 CFR 600.7 and has 
determined that the activity to be funded is necessary to 
satisfactorily complete the current research. DOE funding for the Grant 
is estimated at $25,000 and the anticipated period of performance is 
twelve (12) months.
