These updated instructions replace those released on December 27, 2021, and will be referenced in future Notices Inviting Applications (NIAs). Key changes include the removal of references to the Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) in favor of the Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and updates to application submission protocols. Applicants are advised to register in the System for Award Management (SAM) and to submit their applications electronically via Grants.gov. The document outlines necessary steps, including obtaining a UEI, submitting applications by strict deadlines, and instructions for both electronic and potential paper submissions. Technical support is available for applicants encountering issues with the submission process. This initiative aims to enhance the efficiency and accessibility of the DOE grant application process, aligning with broad government efforts to support grant seekers effectively while maintaining compliance with federal regulations.
