The General Services Administration (GSA) along with Department of Energy (DOE) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) for technologies that increase sustainability of buildings. They are investing $30 million of Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) funds to facilitate the testing of innovative technologies through GSA’s Center for Emerging Building Technologies. By testing new building technologies in federal buildings, these programs help GSA make smarter investments and enable and encourage wider market adoption of clean energy innovations.
The new RFI seeks to identify emerging and sustainable technologies in the following categories:
Submissions must be technologies and solutions that are technically and commercially ready for evaluation in occupied, operational buildings. The government will pilot selected technologies in federally-owned facilities and DOE will pilot them in privately-owned facilities.
Proposals are due Friday, September 13. Click here for more details. You may also contact Lionel Lemay at llemay@nrmca.org or Julie Garbini, jgarbini@concreteadvancement.org.
