Now is the time to provide feedback on the four proposed priority areas for the second funding round of ARENA’s Research and Development (R&D) Program.
Feedback on the priority areas will be accepted up to the end of January and should be sent to submissions@arena.gov.au.
ARENA would like to hear stakeholder views on:
- the appropriateness of the proposed priority areas to address a key energy challenge or capitalise on an energy opportunity
- the willingness of industry and others to invest in the proposed priority areas
- the commercialisation prospects for research conducted in these areas
- Australia’s research standing in these areas.
This is an opportunity to help shape collaboration between the R&D sector and industry and have an impact on where ARENA funding is spent.
ARENA will be investing approximately $20 million in commercially-oriented, industry-partnered research projects through this funding round.
