The U.S. Department of Energy's mission is to "ensure America's security and prosperity by addressing its energy, environmental and nuclear challenges through transformative science and technology solutions."
The DOE's Office of Science provides research funding for energy and physical sciences to academic institutions across the U.S.
To see currently funded research grants on a state by state level, see Office of Science Interactive Grants Map.
The Department of Energy Public Access Plan requires investigators receiving DOE funding to "submit the full text of accepted manuscripts and associated metadata" to the DOE's Office of Scientific and Technical Information.
The 2023 DOE Public Access Plan applies to publications arising from DOE-funding published on or after October 1, 2024.
Final, peer-reviewed manuscripts can be submitted using the E-Link system to complete the AN 241.3 form.
Instructions for completing the AN 241.3 can be found here.
A tool specifically for submitting accepted manuscripts is also available.
The manuscript version required is the final, peer-reviewed manuscript version. The DOE also refers to this as an accepted manuscript. This manuscript is the version of the article that has been accepted for publication and includes all changes made by the author during the peer-review process. It does not include the publisher's formatting.
The DOE repository is Public Access Gateway for Energy and Science (PAGES).
