Energy Storage Technology and Product Development (PON 5984)

Due Date:  08/11/2025  (Round 1)

Description

Despite advances in energy storage technologies, and ever-increasing numbers of deployments, several technological optimization opportunities still exist. These include initial pilots and demonstrations, hardware cost reductions, enhanced system performance, and demonstration of effective integration with the power grid. Improving and optimizing these areas will accelerate growth of electrical energy storage deployments. As New York State’s electrification of transportation and buildings applications increases, electrical energy storage solutions will become critical in meeting times of reduced renewable generation.

NYSERDA seeks to stimulate and grow innovation portfolios in New York State focusing on long duration energy storage solutions in electrical, mechanical, chemical, and thermal-electric energy storage and advanced, next-generation battery solutions of all durations.  NYSERDA is doing so by making up to $10.85 million in funds available via Program Opportunity Notice (PON) 5984. This funding is to support innovative and under-utilized energy storage solutions, devices, software, controls, and other complementary technologies that decrease energy storage total hardware and installation costs, improve performance, and demonstrate integration with the power grid. Submissions must demonstrate significant statewide public benefits and quantify all energy, environmental, and/or economic impacts.
