Sun Grant Association
The Sun Grant Association is a consortium of land-grant universities in the United States that serve as regional centers for the Sun Grant Initiative.[1][2] As laid out in the Sun Grant Research Initiative Act of 2003, sun-grant universities have a purpose to research and develop biobased energy.[3] The initiative was initially authorized in the 2002 Farm Bill, and has been renewed by subsequent farm bills. The federal Department of Agriculture, Department of Energy, and Department of Transportation are partners in the program.[4] The sun-grant program, along with the sea- and space-grant programs, make up the three national grant programs based on the original concept of land-grant universities.[5]
