BSU Team Wins EnergyTech University Bonus Prize

Congratulations to Boise State students Katelyn Wada and Cadre’ Francis, and staff members, Tony Valayil Varghese and Michael Eppel for being chosen for the EnergyTech University Bonus Prize for their submission on Additively Manufactured Sensors for Nuclear Energy. As a Technology Bonus Prize winner, they were awarded $25,000, and are invited to attend Energy Thought Summit in Austin Texas this month and present their business plan.

The EnergyTech University Prize (EnergyTech UP), sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Technology Transitions (OTT) named winners in the Explore Phase in EnergyTech UP 2023. The teams were tasked with identifying a DOE National Laboratory-developed or other high-potential energy technology, assessing its market potential, and pitching their strategy for commercialization to a panel of industry judges at a regional Explore Event.

One Regional Winner and several Bonus Prize Finalists were chosen in each of the 15 regions by a panel of industry judges. The final winners of the Bonus Prizes were then selected by the bonus prize’s corresponding DOE technology office.
