    Golden Field Office; Grant Award to Tufts University
    
    AGENCY: Department of Energy.
    
    ACTION: Notice of Noncompetitive Financial Assistance Award.

    SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), pursuant to the DOE 
    Financial Assistance Rules, 10 CFR 600.7, is announcing its intention 
    to award a grant to Tufts University for continuing research efforts in 
    support of the DOE Office for Building Technologies programs. Tufts' 
    lab-scale research on electrochromic devices will help advance the goal 
    of developing viable electrochromic windows for building applications.
    
    ADDRESSES: Questions regarding this announcement may be addressed to 
    the U.S. Department of Energy, Golden Field Office, 1617 Cole Blvd., 
    Golden, Colorado 80401, Attention: Louise Urgo, Contract Specialist. 
    The Contracting Officer is John W. Meeker.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed basic research will contribute 
    to the DOE mission by identifying and solving the materials and optics 
    problems associated with developing practical electrochromic windows 
    for electrical control of radiant energy transfer in building and 
    vehicle windows. Successful completion of this research would advance 
    the goal of commercialization of electrochromic window technology. 
    Deploying this window technology will reduce energy use in buildings 
    which, in the U.S., accounts for about 40% of annual national energy 
    consumption. Approximately one-sixth of that energy is wasted by 
    unwanted radiation transfer through windows.
        DOE has performed a review in accordance with 10 CFR 600.7 and has 
    determined that the activity to be funded is necessary to 
    satisfactorily complete the current research. DOE funding for the Grant 
    is estimated at $238,947 and the anticipated period of performance is 
    twelve (12) months. Tufts will share in the grant in the amount of 
    $110,785.
    
        Dated: June 10, 1994.

    Golden Field Office.
