The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

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. Cryogenically Flexible, Low Permeability Thoraeus Rubber H2 Dispenser Hose

    SBC: NANOSONIC INC.            Topic: 06a

    NanoSonic has recently developed high strength-to-weight ratio Thoraeus Rubber composites that maintain radiation resistance and EMI shielding upon severe and repeated mechanicals strains. This state-of-the-art, flexible shielding material was designed as a bladder for space-based enclosures that required ultra-low air permeability, radiation tolerance, resistance to hydrogen (H2) embrittlement ...

  2. Low-cost, High-capacity Lithium Ion Batteries through Modified Surface and Microstructure

    SBC: Navitas Systems, Llc            Topic: 08a

    With the promise of low cost and high capacity, silicon-based materials have emerged as the anode of the future for lithium ion batteries. Commercial success has been hindered by limited cycle life, expensive precursors and non-scalable processes. The overall approach will use low- cost microsilicon starting material and readily scalable methods to attain nanostructure amenable to high capacity an ...

  3. Increasing Power Capture of Wave Energy Converters via Advanced control of the PowerTake-Off

    SBC: Ocean Power Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 09a

    The increase in the ability of a wave energy converter (WEC) to capture energy from waves is critical to ensuring the viability and cost effectiveness of wave energy power devices. WECs absorb wave power by applying a back force to oppose the forces that waves exert on the system. The back force is implemented by the systems Power Takeoff and is typically chosen via a constant damping value (resis ...

  4. Capability of Rolling Efficiency for 100M High-Speed Rails

    SBC: OG Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 02b

    Development of high-speed rail services in the US is one of the priorities of the current administration. High-speed rails have the potential to change the nations energy consumption landscape in transportation at a time when both the highway and railroad capacities are being saturated with increased demand. In preparation to expand the transportation infrastructure for the coming decades, railro ...

  5. Rapid Formation of Crystalline Plugs for Deep Borehole Seals

    SBC: Olympic Research, Inc.            Topic: 20a

    The DOE is evaluating deep borehole disposal of nuclear waste, where waste packages are emplaced in the lower sections of holes drilled 3 to 5 km deep in crystalline rock. A variety of plug and backfill materials are placed in the boreholes above the waste packages as structural and sealing members. This Phase I projectl will develop an approach to forming high performance plugs of molten metal a ...

  6. Power Density Enhancement and Cost Reduction of a No Moving Parts Wave Energy Harvester

    SBC: OSCILLA POWER INC            Topic: 09a

    Ocean wave energy has the potential to support approximately 10% of domestic and global electricity demand. Despite considerable investment over the past decade, however, wave energy is unlikely to make a material contribution to domestic or global energy supplies unless new technologies with significantly lower capital costs and higher reliability than todays leading technologies can be developed ...

  7. Geothermal Dual Acoustic Tool for Measurement of Rock Stress

    SBC: Perma Works Llc            Topic: 05a

    The current hydrothermal power generation is about 1/2% of total US electricity demand, which is small compared to the potential geothermal power that could be developed using Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS). EGS depends on creating or enhancing a geothermal reservoir by well stimulation in a hot rock formation. The acoustic (or sonic) tool Perma Works is developing will measure the directiona ...

  8. Geothemal Well Inspection Camera

    SBC: Perma Works Llc            Topic: 05a

    Conventional water wells use well logging cameras to inspect the well. Today, geothermal wells must be cooled before video inspection. Cooling the well by pumping cold water into the well is expensive and damaging to the well. The well casing undergoes extreme changes in stress when the well is temperature cycled; lose your casing lose your well. As such, the benefits of visually inspecting ...

  9. Compton Imaging Tomography for In-Situ NDE of Nuclear Reactor Materials

    SBC: Physical Optics Corporation            Topic: 19e

    The DOEs Office of Nuclear Energy is seeking to develop innovative methods for nondestructive examination (NDE) of key nuclear reactor structures, systems, and components (SSCs). The degradation of nuclear power plants (NPPs) impacts NPP reliability, availability, and even safety of operation. Many current NPPs have been operating for over 40 years, which places considerable stress on SSCs that ar ...

  10. Low cost printed electrodes for OLED lighting

    SBC: Plextronics            Topic: 04a

    Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) is a new emerging technology that is energy efficient and environment friendly lighting replacement for current lighting technologies such as incandescent bulbs and fluorescent tubes. As performance of OLEDs has improved over the last several years it has demonstrated the potential to reach parity with LED lighting. However cost remains a major obstacle fo ...
