Research equipment can be purchased with grants.
There are several programs that provide grants to purchase equipment for research and development projects. Grants may also support programs that help institutions of higher education buy research equipment. These equipment grants do not have to be repaid by the recipients.
Used Energy-Related Laboratory Equipment Grants
The Department of Energy sponsors the Used Energy-Related Laboratory Equipment Grants program. Grant funds are used to obtain used research equipment that is then given to eligible recipients for use in energy-oriented research and instructional programs in the fields of science and engineering. Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education, high schools, middle schools, hospitals, technical institutes and museums. Equipment may not be sold or auctioned.
