The Office of Naval Research (ONR), part of the Department of the Navy, is seeking research and development proposals for the Transient Reducing Active Power System (TRAPS) initiative. - Government Buyer: - Department of the Navy, Office of Naval Research (ONR) - Products/Services Requested: - Research and development services to design, model, and demonstrate an advanced power system architecture for Navy shipboard applications - Focus on integrating controls, power conversion, and energy storage to condition and smooth transient low-voltage DC (LVDC) mission load profiles - System must ensure compliance with MIL-STD-1399 Section 300 for ship service power compatibility - Includes conceptual design, MATLAB modeling, demonstration of high-risk components, and technology development planning - Quantities/Part Numbers: - No specific product part numbers or quantities provided; opportunity is for applied research and prototype development - Unique/Notable Requirements: - Applied research at Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 3-4 - 2-year base period with optional 2-year prototype design phase - Funding up to $2.5 million per contract anticipated - Place of performance may include Navy ship platforms - No specific OEMs or vendors are named in the solicitation

Description

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is interested in receiving white papers and full proposals in support of the development of an advanced power system architecture. This system, consisting of controls, power conversion, and energy storage, will modify and condition the transient power demand profile of shipboard mission loads to ensure compatibility with ship service power generating system capabilities for present and future Navy ship applications.

This BAA call will be awarded under the FY25 ONR Long Range BAA N0001425SB001. Please read the latest Amendment before submitting white papers/proposals.
