This round includes a "Gridtech Spotlight" opportunity for partnership with a Massachusetts electric utility on a grid technology demonstration. Eligible applicants include climatetech startup companies that are Massachusetts-based. Projects must be submitted as an Applicant Team including a Lead Applicant and one or more Demonstration Project Partner(s).
