This 3-year project (10/1/2024 - 3/31/2026) under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program aims to support...
The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded a $4,824,449 Cooperative Agreement to Advanced Cooling Technologies Inc. (ACT) under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program. The goals of this 1-year project are to mature the technology for efficient compact combustors for methane mitigation and create workforce development strategies to support broad application of the technology in the oil and gas sector. ACT, a small business...
This $12,500,000 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under the Clean Energy Demonstrations program (CFDA 81.255) supports the construction and operation of a post-combustion carbon capture system at the Baytown Energy Center, a natural gas-fired power plant in Texas. The project aims to capture and sequester approximately 2 million metric tons of CO2 annually using Shell Catalysts & Technologies' amine-based carbon capture technology. The project also...
This $15.7 million Project Grant from the Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration supports the Appalachian Climate Technology (ACT NOW) Coalition led by the Coalfield Development Corporation. The Coalition will spur job growth in 21 economically distressed, coal-impacted counties in southern West Virginia through clean energy and green economy initiatives. Products and services include developing a hub for solar power to support the transition from coal; implementing...
The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded a $69,060,830 Cooperative Agreement (CFDA 81.089 - Fossil Energy Research and Development) to the Southern States Energy Board to establish a Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) hub in a three-county area of eastern Ohio, northern West Virginia, and western Pennsylvania. The project aims to characterize geological formations for CO2 storage, develop plans for storage site operations and commercialization, and...
The Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) awarded a $6,042,305 cooperative agreement to 8 Rivers Capital, LLC for Phase 2 of the FLECCS program. The goal of the project is to demonstrate the UNO Mk 3 carbon capture process on natural gas combustion emissions at the National Carbon Capture Center in Alabama. This is intended to reduce technical risks and accelerate commercialization of the UNO Mk 3 process for gas turbines. The 3-year project period runs from...
The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded a $2,500,000 Cooperative Agreement to Lehigh University under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program.
