Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) process is of fundamental importance for understanding photosynthesis and advancing photovoltaics and molecular fluorescent probes used to discover chemical machinery of living cells. FRET simulations of donor-acceptor pairs were performed with the Förster theory and quantum dynamics methods. In particular, FRET pairs with BODIPY (4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-<i>s</i>-indacene)-derived donors and tetrazine acceptors are considered. The effects of orientation factors, spectral overlaps, and electronic couplings on FRET rates are presented and discussed.
