Commercialization Cohort Programs (PON 6239)

Due Date:  12/02/2026  (Round 1)

Description

NYSERDA is making $37.9M available through the Commercialization Cohort program. This program will support climate-tech innovators in bringing their technology to market, starting from the earliest stages to full commercial scale up.  The program will launch four accelerators that span the continuum of the start-up journey, with programming that builds on each other in successive stages.    

The accelerator programs will support companies in a cohort format, where a group of companies are selected and participate in programming together.  Companies will receive training, mentoring support, and direct grant funding to reach key adoption milestones.    

This action supports NYSERDA Commercialization’s mission to grow startups and prepare them to deploy innovative technologies for positive results. These cohort-based accelerators will enable measurable impact and incentivize companies to enter, grow, and stay in the State.  Programming will support companies in finding and developing partnerships for pilot projects and commercial scale up in New York State.
