Proposals from appropriate institutions submitted to GCEP must meet the following criteria: - Excellent fundamental science and/or engineering
- Step-out or game-changing potential to offer new options for reducing greenhouse gas emissions
- Demonstration of a pathway to a device, theory or application which could substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions over the long term
- Potential for application at significant scale
- Reasonable level of funding
Proposals of the type below will not be funded by GCEP: - An incremental continuation of a longstanding research effort, even one that represents excellent science
- Technology with a limited scope of applicability or with no realistic pathway to deployment
- Enabling tools (e.g., instrumentation) that do not in themselves represent an advance along the pathway to an energy technology with reduced greenhouse gas emissions
