This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under the Clean Energy Demonstrations program (CFDA 81.255) provides $45,133,953 to Libbey Glass LLC to consolidate four existing glass furnaces into two larger oxy-hybrid furnaces. The project aims to demonstrate the first domestic deployment of oxy-hybrid glass furnace technology, which allows flexible use of electricity to replace up to 80% of the combustion-based energy source for glass melting. The project will also...
The Department of Energy (DOE) awarded a $75,000,000 Cooperative Agreement to Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Corporation under the Clean Energy Demonstrations Federal Grant Program (CFDA 81.255). The project aims to construct four new induction reheat furnaces (IRF) at the company's Lyndora, PA facility to produce high-silicon grain oriented electrical steel (GOES), which is used in electrical transformers. This technology upgrade will electrify the steel slab reheating process, allowing the company...
