  1. Development and commercialization of the biofuels industry
  2. Development and commercialization of the green building industry, and
  3. Attraction and leverage of private sector investments and entrepreneurial growth in environmentally conscious clean technology and renewable energy products and businesses.
Applicants MUST read the solicitation carefully for eligibility requirements, as eligibility may be limited to a subset of entities, and significant changes have been made from previous years' solicitations.

All applicants are required to complete a short (750 words or less) pre-proposal, which will be screened for eligibility. Eligible applicants will be invited to submit a full proposal for review.
