The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) awarded a $17,547,861 Cooperative Agreement (CFDA 81.086 - Conservation Research and Development) to the University of Wisconsin System to design, fabricate, and demonstrate a 250 kW solid oxide electrolyzer cell (SOEC) system capable of performing steam and co-electrolysis. The system will be integrated with an existing 1.6 million tons per year direct reduction of iron (DRI) facility in Toledo, Ohio to...

This Cooperative Agreement award, with a total funding amount of $3,909,166.00, is provided by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under the Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086). The overall objective is to complete a feasibility study for a regional Direct Air Capture (DAC) hub encompassing Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky. The study will be executed in two phases: Phase 0A to complete a pre-feasibility study, and Phase 0B to complete the full feasibility study. Key...

This $3,751,595 federal Cooperative Agreement award, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086), supports a feasibility study for a regional Direct Air Capture (DAC) hub in the Pueblo region of Colorado. The overall objective is to evaluate the potential to capture and store at least 1 million metric tons of CO2 from the atmosphere annually, with an initial capacity of at least 50,000 metric tons. The study will be executed in two phases...

This Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (CFDA 81.089 - Fossil Energy Research and Development) provides $2,484,023.00 to advance the characterization of coal combustion residual effluents. The primary goals are to determine the environmental impact and resource recovery potential of these wastewaters. The award period runs from September 1, 2024 to February 28, 2026 and is held by the University of Illinois. The...

This $80,225,157 Cooperative Agreement was awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) federal grant program. The award was made to Tampa Electric Company (TEC) for the Polk Carbon Storage Complex project, which aims to assess the technical and commercial feasibility of developing a carbon dioxide (CO2) storage facility near TEC's Polk Power Station. Key project activities include...

The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management, under the Fossil Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.089), awarded a $9,993,082 Cooperative Agreement to Winner Water Services Inc. on July 9, 2024.
