ARPA-E's mission is to fund projects that will develop transformational technologies that reduce America's dependence on foreign energy imports; reduce U.S. energy-related emissions (including greenhouse gasses); improve energy efficiency across all sectors of the U.S. economy and ensure that the United States maintains its leadership in developing and deploying advanced energy technologies. For more information see the ARPA-E Web site at Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E). Inventors may also seek funding by submitting an unsolicited proposal to EERE.
