About this award
The Federal Railroad Administration awarded a definitive contract to Thermadynamics Rail LLC for research, development, and demonstration of locomotive emission-reduction technologies on September 8, 2023. This is a sole-source award under FAR 6.302-1.
The contract ceiling is $850,000 under firm fixed pricing. A modification issued on the award date added $350,000 under CLIN 00002 and extended the period of performance through September 20, 2028.
The originating solicitation, posted August 22, 2023 as a special notice, funds continued development of a Locomotive Waste Heat Recovery System (LWHRS) technology previously researched under FRA grants and contracts. Work includes feasibility studies applying the technology to EMD/Progress Rail locomotive engines and further development and optimization for GE/Wabtec locomotive engines to advance commercialization. The sole-source justification rests on the contractor's established understanding of the technology and the need to minimize ramp-up time for a new contractor. Place of performance is Manassas Park, VA.
