Yes, as long as the contractor operating the FFRDC is a nonprofit organization and can meet the definition of a CBO in Section III.A of the NOFO. The nonprofit contractor operating the FFRDC may apply as part of a Statutory Partnership as described in Section III.A of the NOFO in its nonprofit capacity if they otherwise meet the requirements for a CBO in Section III.A of the NOFO and other NOFO requirements, and the Department of Energy or another Federal agency operating the FFRDC gives the FFRDC contractor permission to apply for the grant.
