The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY23 is not expected to be complete until September, 2024.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Seaweed-based bioplastic replacement for commercial lobster fishing gear.

    SBC: VIABLE GEAR LLC            Topic: 93

    Viable Gear will provide proof-of-concept for a seaweed-based bioplastic to be used in manufacturing a compostable biotwine for marine equipment, designed to replace petroleum-based plastics. This addresses NOM-SBIR research topic area 9.3, The Changing Ocean - specifically to "support increased protection and restoration of marine and coastal habitats to enhance vital ecosystems", by helping decr ...

  2. Artificial Intelligence (AI) based algorithms for predictive maintenance using NOAA data-sets for renewable energy assets

    SBC: 60Hertz Incorporated            Topic: 92

    This research aims to develop decision support tools for better maintenance and planning of renewable energy generation and storage assets using atmospheric, local weather, and on-ground environmental data blended with site-, regional- and national-generation data. The study will use a combination of these data to understand the relationship between non-cloud cover based atmospheric conditions and ...

  3. Development and evaluation of peroxide free fin-fish nursery feeds with active DHA-synthase enzyme (DSe)

    SBC: FPN LLC            Topic: 93

    The marine microalgae Chrypthecodinium conhii (C. cohnii) contains high levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and DHA synthase enzymes (DSe). Finfish have shown de novo synthesis of DHA when fed a C. cohnii product, KoniSap™, developed by FPN LLC. KoniSap™ is unique to the aqua-feed market as it is produced under low temperature and inert gas to prevent lipid oxidation and avoid enzyme denatura ...

  4. Sustainable seed production for North Atlantic kelp aquaculture

    SBC: Ocean's Balance Inc            Topic: 93

    Demand for seaweed products has dramatically increased in the U.S.; however, domestic production from both wild harvests and aquaculture operations only supplies 1% of this demand. To meet demand, expansion of seaweed aquaculture is crucial to protect wild populations from extinction by overharvesting, which impacts entire marine ecosystems. Currently, U.S. kelp aquaculture methods rely on wild ha ...

  5. Artificial Intelligence (AI) based algorithms for predictive maintenance using NOAA data-sets for renewable energy assets

    SBC: 60Hertz Incorporated            Topic: 92

    We propose to use Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) measurements as an early warning system, to cue on-site validation of the soiling station and any available meteorological (MET) station data to validate if a work order to clean deposited particulate matter is necessary. This would move from reactive maintenance – often weeks delayed, to proactive maintenance – getting ahead of the weather impact ...

  6. Upper Cook Inlet Electrofuels

    SBC: OCEAN RENEWABLE POWER CO INC            Topic: C5418d

    Cook Inlet is a significant untapped renewable energy resource. With a global transition towards fostering green fuel production to create a carbon-negative future, ORPC has coupled with the existing facility at Port MacKenzie that is exploring economic development opportunities to investigate the ability to produce electrofuels at the underutilized dock. This presents a unique and compelling case ...

  7. Development and evaluation of peroxide free fin-fish nursery feeds with active DHA-synthase enzyme (DSe)

    SBC: FPN LLC            Topic: 93

    The marine microalgae Crypthecodinium cohnii (C. cohnii) contains high levels of DHA and DHA synthase enzyme (DSe) both of which may provide nutritional benefits to finfish for human consumption. Field Phyto-Nutrients LLC has developed a process for algae-based feed preparation where the algae is dried under low temperature (

  8. Sustainable seed production for North Atlantic kelp aquaculture

    SBC: Ocean's Balance Inc            Topic: 93

    Demand for seaweed products has dramatically increased in the U.S.; however, only 1% is met with domestic production. Expansion of seaweed aquaculture is crucial to protect wild populations from extinction by overharvesting, which impacts entire marine ecosystems. Current kelp aquaculture methods rely on harvested reproductive tissue, which is not sustainable. In response to NOAA Topic 9.3, Health ...

  9. MULTI-MEGAWATT RF VACUUM WINDOW FOR HIGH DUTY-FACTOR RF ACCELERATING CAVITIES

    SBC: Microwave Techniques LLC            Topic: 14a

    High power RF vacuum windows used in typical accelerating cavities have historically been difficult to manufacture to meet the demanding electrical and mechanical requirements. In many instances, these items are what limits the power handling of an accelerator. The high electrical fields on the vacuum side of these windows is prone to multipaction breakdown as well as being subjected to high mecha ...
