Under Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADAs), several parties agree to collaborate on a specific research project. No money changes hands with this type of agreement. NETL actively seeks opportunities to partner with the private sector and academia to develop and commercialize new energy and environmental technologies using CRADAs.
NETL makes some inventions available to the private sector for licensing. |
