The Houston Hydrogen Transportation Pilot is a $750,000 Project Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program. The grant aims to demonstrate the potential for repurposing existing infrastructure to provide profitable zero-emission transportation fueled by low-carbon intensity hydrogen in the Greater Houston area. The project will be executed in two phases. The first phase will evaluate environmental and community risks...

This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), under the Conservation Research and Development (CFDA 81.086) program, will develop and validate a 100-kW flexible combined heat and power (CHP) system capable of operating on a range of low-carbon fuels, including 100% hydrogen, hydrogen-pipeline-natural-gas blends, and biogas. The $5,625,000 award, with a performance period from Aug 1, 2024 to Jan 31, 2026, will...

The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) awarded a $3,037,399 Cooperative Agreement under the Renewable Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.087) to General Electric Company's GE Research Division. The goal of this 12-month project is to design, manufacture, and test a 20 kg composite liquid hydrogen (LH2) storage tank that is scalable to larger capacities of 60-120 kg for heavy trucks and 200-1000 kg for aircraft. The project will...

The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded Hyliion Inc. a $8,395,817 Cooperative Agreement under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) federal grant program. The objective of this project is to definitively demonstrate the real-world capabilities of Hyliion's Karno Generator technology, which repurposes flare gas in oil fields to generate near-zero emission electricity. The key goals of the project are to: 1) demonstrate near-zero...

This $1,000,000 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) under the Renewable Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.087) aims to advance the deployment of sustainable hydrogen infrastructure in New York State. The project will address key challenges related to siting, permitting, and installation of hydrogen infrastructure that can be replicated across the country. Key activities include collaborative...

This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), under the Renewable Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.087), will demonstrate a 250-kW advanced liquid alkaline-based electrolyzer cell design by Power To Hydrogen LLC, a small disadvantaged business. The $6,602,155 project aims to develop a U.S. supplier base capable of gigawatt-scale manufacturing for key electrolyzer components, including bipolar...

The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) awarded a $3,204,167 Cooperative Agreement to Czero Inc. under the Renewable Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.087) program. The objective of this 21-month project is to build and test a novel modular hydrogen compressor featuring hydraulic actuation. This compressor prototype will be capable of compressing hydrogen from 120 to 875 bar at a rate of 2.5 kg/min, with a stretch goal of 3.75 kg/min at...
