The DOE hasn’t update their funding reports for several days, but, the big news is that compared to last week, the amount of funding available has surpassed $10 billion, growing by roughly $340 million.
The combined DOE and NSF payouts have also crossed something of a threshold: Finally, more than $.5 billion in has been distributed.
Don’t forget – vote in our poll on when DOE will cross the $1 billion mark.
