BIRD Energy

The BIRD Foundation administers BIRD Energy as a conditional grant route for joint U.S.-Israel energy R&D projects. The captured source states a maximum conditional grant of USD 1.5 million per project and no more than 50 percent of the joint R&D budget, with the project outcome expected to lead to commercialization. The 2026 source page lists an executive-summary deadline of July 8, 2026 at 5pm EST, a full-proposal deadline of October 6, 2026 at 5pm, and decisions in December 2026. Treat the executive summary as the first gate and verify the current BIRD template and full instructions before starting an application.

Each grant below is a distinct funding opportunity with its own eligibility, scope, and deliverables.
