The '''Accelerator Stewardship Test Facility Program''', established in 2010 under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and supported by the Energy Policy Act of 2005, is administered by the Department of Energy (DOE) through its Office of High Energy Physics within the Office of Science to provide grants and facility access to researchers, national labs, and industry partners, allocating over $1 billion since inception to support approximately 150 projects annually by 2025. Initially funded with $10 million, it has grown to distribute $100 million in FY 2024 across 150 awards, funding innovations like advanced particle accelerators for medical isotopes, security screening, and energy applications at facilities like Brookhaven National Laboratory and Fermilab.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://science.osti.gov/hep/Research/Accelerator-Stewardship |title=Accelerator Stewardship |publisher=U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science}}</ref> Despite its impact, challenges like funding competition, limited facility access, and technological complexity persist (web ID: 3), but it remains a key DOE effort to steward accelerator technology. | The '''Accelerator Stewardship Test Facility Program''', established in 2010 under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and supported by the Energy Policy Act of 2005, is administered by the Department of Energy (DOE) through its Office of High Energy Physics within the Office of Science to provide grants and facility access to researchers, national labs, and industry partners, allocating over $1 billion since inception to support approximately 150 projects annually by 2025.
