ENERGYWERX Voucher Opportunity 11 (Provider) - iCRS-T is a program from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Integrated Energy Systems Office that matches U.S.-based organizations with specialized expertise in advanced electric system modeling and interconnection studies with U.S. transmission providers seeking to reduce interconnection costs.
Voucher Providers offer capabilities such as electromagnetic transient (EMT) modeling, grid-enhancing technologies, and power electronic device analysis to help transmission owners integrate large loads, generation resources, and storage devices. The iCRS-T program is part of DOE's i2X initiative to make grid interconnection simpler, faster, and more affordable.
Eligible participants include industry, universities, national laboratories, and government entities. Applications closed April 2, 2026.

Eligibility & Review Requirements Interconnection Cost Reduction Solutions (iCRS) Program View the full iCRS-D Opportunity Page View the full iCRS-T Opportunity Page In early 2026, the U.S. Department of Energy Interconnection Innovation e-Xchange (i2X) will launch the Interconnection Cost Reduction Solutions (iCRS) program with opportunities to address both the distribution-level (iCRS-D) and transmission-level (iCRS-T) interconnection challenges.
The mission of i2X is to enable simple, fast, and affordable interconnection while enhancing the reliability and security of the electric grid.
In the face of rapidly rising energy needs, i2X works to maximize the use of Federal resources such that state and local governments, utilities, grid operators, grid customers, and other stakeholders address interconnection constraints to efficiently meet new demand in an affordable, reliable, and secure manner.
Interconnection Cost Reduction Solutions for Distribution Grid (iCRS-D) Through iCRS-D, i2X will fund local, state, or regional partnerships to execute a Lighthouse Project–a pilot program which develops and demonstrates new technologies and effective solutions–to increase data access and transparency, streamline and expedite interconnection services, and maximize economic efficiency.
Lead organizations, with their partners, will apply their distribution-level interconnection expertise to prioritize and adapt practical solutions for load and generation interconnection. These efforts will deliver tested approaches to scalable interconnection innovations that improve processes, reduce overall costs, and maintain a reliable grid.
ENERGYWERX is compiling a Teaming Partner List to facilitate the formation of project teams for this solicitation. The Teaming Partner List allows entities that may wish to participate on a project to express their interest to other applicants and explore potential partnerships.
Interested entities may apply to the Teaming Partner List HERE The Teaming Partner List can be viewed HERE (Password is case sensitive: icrsd) and will be updated regularly to reflect new teaming partners who provide their organization’s information.
Interconnection Cost Reduction Solutions for Transmission (iCRS-T) iCRS-T will feature two solicitations and facilitate matchmaking between U.S. transmission providers (Voucher Recipients) and U.S.-based organizations with specialized expertise in advanced electric system modeling capabilities and interconnection studies (Voucher Providers).
Voucher Recipients seeking to include cost reducing technologies and techniques (such as grid-enhancing technologies and control options within power electronic devices) in their interconnection studies to reliably integrate power-electronics-interfaced large loads, generation resources, and storage devices will be matched with experienced Voucher Providers with these capabilities.
The program will also increase in-house expertise with training in electromagnetic transient (EMT) modeling. The goal of iCRS-T is to improve affordability and strengthen grid reliability by enhancing technical capabilities of U.S. bulk power system transmission owners and operators.

On August 24, 2026, DOE and SBA signed a memorandum of agreement creating the Small Business Investment Company-Energy Initiative, pointing a $58 billion SBA-leveraged investment program at DOE's technology priorities. No application, no NOFO, no deadline. Here is how SBIC capital actually works, why a January 2026 rule change made this possible, and what a company sitting on a DOE Phase II award should do about it.
Read articleThe Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Energy Office's University Training and Research program funds coal, oil and gas, and geothermal R&D at U.S. colleges and universities — but every proposal must include a non-academic partner and must build training modules that outlive the award. The LOI deadline is October 1, 2026, with full applications 15 days later. Here is what that compressed window means and why the workforce framing changes what a competitive proposal looks like.
Read articleOn April 20, 2026, the White House declared grid, natural gas, LNG, petroleum, and coal 'essential to national defense,' unlocking DPA Title III loans, loan guarantees, and purchase commitments through DOE. Here is how this non-traditional financing works, who qualifies, why the September 30 sunset matters, and how energy companies and their supply chains should position now.
