Background<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Roles and Responsibilities at the Nebraska Center for Energy Sciences Research<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Selection and Awards<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Energy Center will release a request for proposals (RFP) around the first of April. To learn more about the selection and award process, click on the link below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Costs, Budget, and Monitoring Grants<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition to the information in the attached slide show, you should be aware that Energy Center grants will be handled by your department even though they have a “1217” cost center number on them. The Energy Center will monitor the awarded projects. If a question arises, our office will contact you. Please watch the Slide Show for other information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Awarded funds may be shifted among budget categories; however, the cumulative total of these changes must be within +<\/span> 20% of the total grant amount. \u00a0To reallocate funds among line items in excess of the\u00a0+<\/span> 20% cumulative limit, you must first start by sending a written request to the Energy Center (swesely4@unl.edu) for approval 30 days prior to incurring additional commitments and\/or expenditures that exceed the limit. \u00a0See the amendment process section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Amendment Process<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Occasionally a change needs to be made to the categories in the budget or a no-cost extension is needed. When that happens, a “Request to Amend Energy Grant” amendment form needs to be requested from the Energy Center. The form will be sent to you electronically. When completing the form, you will notice that calculations occur automatically. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The completed form must be submitted not less than 30 working days<\/span> prior to the desired effective date of the requested change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Progress Reports<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Year 2 Funding and Closeout Process<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Progress review meetings are held in the Fall. At that time, Year 1 projects with provisional funding for Year 2 will be evaluated. Principal Investigators will need to be prepared to give a presentation to the review committee.
