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. Segmented and Blocky Hydrocarbon Ion Pair Membranes for Fuel Cells

    SBC: NANOSONIC INC.            Topic: 10a

    The DOE has identified a need for thin and durable proton conducting membranes that offer enhanced energy efficiency to power zero emission vehicles. Specifically, a cost effective hydrocarbon-based alternative to expensive commercial perfluorosulfonic acid ionomers are sought. Current hydrocarbon membranes do not meet the performance or durability needed in the conditions for transportation fuel ...

  2. SOFTOX FOR STRANDED GAS UTILIZATION

    SBC: Modular Chemical, Inc.            Topic: 22a

    Many of todayโ€™s oil producers are forced to flare associated natural gas or shut-in wells because they cannot economically bring the gas to market. Natural gas flaring and venting exposes produc- ers to environmental liabilities, reduces potential revenues, and depreciates assets. Initially, this project will focus on a particularly acute problem for many producersโ€”the co-production (with oil) ...

  3. Electrospray Deposition of Perovskite Solar Cells

    SBC: NANOSONIC INC.            Topic: 16a

    Perovskite-sensitized solar cells have demonstrated high conversion efficiencies however the stability of device is limited compared to common PV technologies. Moisture, UV irradiation, and high temperature triggered degradation limit their commercial viability; therefore, improved cell durability is necessary for perovskite solar cell market entry. In addition, the scale-up and optimization of th ...

  4. Large Volume Plasma Generation for CO2 Processing

    SBC: FGC Plasma Solutions, Inc.            Topic: 20d

    It is attractive therefore to turn Carbon dioxide (๐ถ๐ถ๐‘‚๐‘‚2) which is typically considered a pollutant, into a valuable industrial resource. Plasma has long been known as an attractive method of treating ๐ถ๐ถ๐‘‚๐‘‚2 in order to produce other industrial feedstocks such as CO. For this process to be industrially viable, plasma treatment of ๐ถ๐ถ๐‘‚๐‘‚2 must be improved to minimiz ...

  5. Multi-Stroke Variable Displacement Oscillating Pump for Hydrokinetic Energy

    SBC: RESOLUTE MARINE ENERGY, INC.            Topic: 14c

    Over 1 billion people suffer from the effects of water scarcity. The vast majority of those affected live near a coastline in developing countries, on islands, and in remote communities. To satisfy the potable water needs of a growing world population, experts agree that seawater desalination on a large scale is required. Near-shore ocean waves provide an inexhaustible, consistent, and widely dist ...

  9. Wireless Sensor Platform for Dry Spent Fuel Cask Monitoring

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: 31a

    Reactor cores in commercial power plants produce spent nuclear fuel, which is discharged every 3-4 years.There is currently a pressing need to safely store spent fuel for long periods (decades to centuries) using dry storage systems.Long duration storage requires comprehensive monitoring to ensure safe conditions as the waste decays.DOE has expressed desire to measure conditions within waste casks ...
