The SCALEUP Ready program funds projects that advance promising ARPA-E funded energy technologies by scaling them from bench scale to commercially viable versions. It supports integration with broader systems, extended performance validation, and manufacturability assessments to overcome technical and commercial barriers. The program targets technologies with disruptive potential that require pre-commercial scaling to attract industry investment and enable U.S. competitiveness in global energy markets.
Eligibility is unrestricted and open to any type of entity, subject to additional clarifications in the official funding opportunity document.
