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. Robust cost-effective characterization of petrophysical properties in sedimentary geothermal applications leveraged by drilling data and cuttings

    SBC: GREENPATH SYSTEMS LLC            Topic: C5513a

    Petrophysical properties such as porosity and permeability are arguably the most important parameters in enhancing geothermal heat production through better completion design and stimulation plan. Collecting well logs are often passive and associated with additional costs. In addition, many logging packages cannot sustain high-temperature formations often observed in geothermal conditions. In thes ...

  2. Extended SWIR Single Photon Avalanche Photo Detector Technology for Bioimaging

    SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC            Topic: C5519b

    There are two principal technical limitations and challenges associated with bioimaging. First, depth imaging is limited by light scattering and diffraction in biological tissue. Second, classical high flux multiphoton optical imaging causes photo-damage to cellular viability and perturbations to molecular biological processes. This renders the sample unusable for repeated in situ imaging and proh ...

  3. High-Performance Small Wind Turbine Blade for Mass Production

    SBC: BERGEY WINDPOWER COMPANY, LLC            Topic: C5617a

    Under new federal incentives, sales of small wind turbines for farms and rural homes are increasing exponentially, but the current methods of blade production do not scale well and are limiting manufacturing growth. The current manufacturing method involves hours of hand work and a total manufacturing cycle of several days. Faster and less expensive methods of producing small wind turbines blades ...

  4. Process Engineering Technology for Manufacture of High-Performance Radiation Detection Semiconductor Materials

    SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC            Topic: C5603a

    C56-03a-273587For national security and non-proliferation missions, there is a need for the development of radiation detectors that simultaneously exhibit good energy resolution, high efficiency, high sensitivity, and good uniformity over an area > 15 cm2 without a need for deep cooling. The development of new materials is seen as a leading option for fulfilling this need. In work by other groups, ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. Field Demonstration of Highly Conductive Nano-engineered Geopolymer Cements for Geothermal Applications-Phase II

    SBC: GREENPATH SYSTEMS LLC            Topic: C5220g

    GHPs (ground heat pumps) have extensive potential applications in the US. Shallow-earth resources exist across all 50 states and can be used for GHPs wherever the ground can be cost-effectively accessed to depths below seasonal temperature variations. The key to reducing geothermal project costs is to minimize well construction costs, including borehole length. Using a thermally conductive grout ( ...

  8. Extraction of values-added minerals from produced water through novel multistage nanofiltration

    SBC: GREENPATH SYSTEMS LLC            Topic: C5408a

    The lack of U.S. domestic lithium and other rare earth elements (REE) production is critical. The push towards renewable energy sources has led to a focus on exploring and recovering critical and rare earth elements, especially Lithium and Magnesium from different resources such as the produced water from the oilfields. Greenpath systems plan to bring to market a new generation of continuous membr ...

  9. Autonomous, power and cost efficient, high speed, trace gas measurement system

    SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC            Topic: 29a

    Determination of gas concentrations and isotopologue ratios are a critical tool in plant, microbial and ecosystem ecology, hydrology, biogeochemistry studies, and interrogation of environmental remediation. In particular, real-time, high bandwidth, high sensitivity measurements of gases such as methane, nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide concentrations in air, soil, and water interfaces to ppm conce ...
