Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity is an annual, standing notice from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science (SC) inviting organizations to submit renewal and supplemental applications for existing Office of Science grants and cooperative agreements. It is not a typical new-start competition; instead, it is designed for current award recipients (or entities seeking additional support tied to an existing SC award) who need to extend, continue, or augment previously approved research or program work. The announcement covers a wide span of Office of Science program areas, including Basic Energy Sciences, High Energy Physics, Nuclear Physics, Advanced Scientific Computing Research, Fusion Energy Sciences, Biological and Environmental Research, and Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists. In practical terms, it functions as the primary submission pathway for ongoing DOE SC financial assistance actions that require a renewal request or a supplemental funding request within these portfolios.
Administratively, applications must be submitted through Grants.gov using the SF-424 Research and Related (R&R) forms, and applicants must use the specific application package attached to the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). A key formatting instruction is that the SF-424 (R&R) does not provide a dedicated field for an existing DOE award number, so applicants are instructed to place the current grant number and clearly indicate the submission type (Renewal or Supplemental) in Block 4, labeled "Federal Identifier." This is important because it helps DOE route the request to the correct award file and program office for appropriate review and processing, and avoids delays that can occur when a renewal or supplement is submitted without a clear link to the underlying award.
The FOA also specifies how core proposal documents must be assembled and uploaded. The abstract and the budget justification are required as separate attachments (two distinct files). The main project narrative must be uploaded as a third single file, and that same narrative file should also contain all other supporting components that are commonly required in federal research applications, such as information on facilities and equipment, current and pending support, curriculum vitae, bibliographies, and similar materials. In other words, aside from the separately uploaded abstract and budget justification, the remainder of the technical and supporting documentation is expected to be consolidated into one narrative attachment to keep the application package organized and complete.
In terms of the official listing details, the Funding Opportunity Number is DE-PS02-09ER09-02, and the title is "Annual Notice Submission of Renewal and Supplemental Applications for Office of Science Grants and Cooperative Agreements." The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding, uses the grant instrument type (and also references cooperative agreements as eligible submission types under the notice), and falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category. The CFDA number provided is 81.049 (Office of Science Financial Assistance Program). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated, meaning applicants generally are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility under this notice, unless a specific program office or award condition states otherwise.
The posting timeline indicates the opportunity was posted October 1, 2008, and it remained open for submissions through September 30, 2009 (or until replaced by a successor announcement). During the open period, applications could be submitted at any time, which aligns with the purpose of handling renewals and supplements on an ongoing basis rather than through a single fixed deadline. Eligibility is described as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any clarifications in the full FOA text, which is common language for DOE notices that may allow many organization types but still require that the applicant be an appropriate recipient for federal financial assistance and, in this case, typically be connected to an existing SC award.
For support and questions, the listing points applicants to the IIPS HelpDesk email for technical issues accessing the announcement or linking to the opportunity, and it provides a program contact, Marilyn Oyler (marilyn.oyler@science.doe.gov). The administering location is listed as the Chicago Service Center, reflecting DOE’s financial assistance processing structure for these types of awards.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1) What is this funding opportunity?
This is an annual, standing notice from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science (SC) for submitting renewal and supplemental applications tied to existing Office of Science grants and cooperative agreements. It is intended to extend, continue, or augment work that has already been approved under an existing SC financial assistance award.
2) Is this a typical new competition for first-time applicants?
No. The notice is not described as a typical new-start competition. It is designed primarily for current award recipients, or for requests that are directly connected to an existing Office of Science award, where additional time and/or funding is needed for previously approved research or program work.
3) Who is this opportunity intended for?
It is intended for organizations submitting renewal or supplemental requests for existing DOE Office of Science grants or cooperative agreements. Eligibility is described as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), but the purpose of the notice is to support actions that are connected to an existing SC award.
4) What types of requests can be submitted under this notice?
The notice invites two main submission types:
- Renewal applications (to extend or continue an existing award)
- Supplemental applications (to request additional support tied to an existing award)
5) Which DOE Office of Science program areas are included?
The announcement spans multiple Office of Science program areas, including:
- Basic Energy Sciences
- High Energy Physics
- Nuclear Physics
- Advanced Scientific Computing Research
- Fusion Energy Sciences
- Biological and Environmental Research
- Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists

13) Why is Block 4 ("Federal Identifier") important for renewals and supplements?
Including the current grant number and submission type (Renewal or Supplemental) in Block 4 helps DOE route the request to the correct award file and program office for review and processing. It also helps avoid delays that can occur if a renewal or supplement is submitted without a clear link to the underlying award.
