In carrying out the program established under section 2(a), the Secretary shall conduct a wind energy technology validation and market transformation program under which the Secretary shall award grants on a competitive, merit-reviewed basis to eligible entities to support activities that demonstrate and validate new wind energy technologies with the potential to be cost-competitive for land-based, offshore, and distributed applications. An eligible entity seeking a grant under this section shall submit an application in such form and manner as the Secretary may prescribe and that contains— a certification that any demonstration project carried out using grant funds are— conducted in collaboration with industry and, as appropriate, with institutions of higher education and other Federal research programs; and of sufficient size and geographic diversity to measure wind energy system performance under the full productive range of wind conditions in the United States; and such other information as the Secretary may require.
In carrying out the program established under subsection (a), the Secretary shall establish or support a facility to conduct research and demonstration projects for wind turbines and plants in hybrid energy systems that incorporate diverse generation sources, loads, and storage technologies. In carrying out the program established under subsection (a), the Secretary shall establish a facility to conduct research, development, and demonstration projects for ocean and atmospheric resource characterization relevant to offshore wind energy development in coordination with the ocean and atmospheric science communities.
The facility shall be an offshore area used to evaluate, test, and advance atmospheric, oceanic, biologic, and geologic monitoring technologies that improve offshore wind energy development, including the generation of benchmark data sets for testing offshore wind energy technologies and informing how such technologies can be financed, insured, and regulated. In carrying out the program established under subsection (a), the Secretary shall create a facility to conduct research, development, and demonstration projects for large-scale and full-scale offshore wind energy support structure components and systems.
