This Cooperative Agreement award, provided by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy under the Conservation Research and Development (CFDA 81.086) program, supports the development of a carbon-free electrochemical process to directly convert iron ore into iron metal. The project, awarded $900,146 and set to be completed by Sep 30, 2025, will focus on a process that uses a liquid molten metal anode for oxygen evolution while producing iron metal at the...
The Cooperative Agreement award, worth $500,000,000 and granted by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) under the Clean Energy Demonstrations program (CFDA 81.255), aims to demonstrate the successful retrofit of Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Corporation's Middletown Works facility in Ohio. The project plans to replace the existing blast furnace with a 100% hydrogen-ready, flex-fuel direct reduced iron (DRI) system and two electric melting furnaces. This retrofit is expected to significantly reduce...
This $12,286,600 Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (CFDA 81.086 - Conservation Research and Development) supports a nationwide collaboration between industry and academia to pioneer an industrial-scale demonstration of alternative injectant refining and electromagnetic stirring (EMS) electric arc furnace (EAF) operation. The goal is to enable complete decarbonization of the EAF steelmaking process by replacing...
The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded a $8,750,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program to the Institute of Gas Technology (GTI Energy), a non-profit research organization. The purpose of the award is to design, fabricate, and test an engineering-scale Rota-Cap carbon dioxide capture system to be deployed on real flue gas conditions in industrial iron and steel production. The project aims to...

This Cooperative Agreement award, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy under the Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086), provides $15,213,183.00 to Seerstone Development LLC, a woman-owned small business, to research and develop the use of CO2-sourced graphite electrodes in electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaking as a decarbonization technology. The project aims to demonstrate the viability of this approach to reduce...
The University of Kentucky Research Foundation has been awarded a $312,719 Cooperative Agreement by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) program. The award will support the development and industrialization of a near-zero carbon direct iron production process using chemical looping with hydrogen co-production. This project aims to decarbonize steel manufacturing, which currently accounts...
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) awarded a $282,853,384 Cooperative Agreement to Vale USA LLC under the Clean Energy Demonstrations (CFDA 81.255) federal grant program. The funding will support the construction of a first-of-its-kind facility in the United States to produce a low-emissions, cold-agglomerated iron ore briquette for use in cleaner steel production. This innovative process is expected to deliver significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional direct...
The Department of Energy awarded a $75,000,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Clean Energy Demonstrations program (CFDA 81.255) to Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Corporation to construct four new induction reheat furnaces (IRFs) at their Lyndora, PA facility. This project will upgrade the existing steelmaking infrastructure to electrify the slab reheating process and produce high-silicon grain oriented electrical steel (GOES) used in electrical transformers. By idling two natural gas-fired reheat...
This federal Cooperative Agreement award, issued by 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), provides $6,250,000 in funding to The Ohio State University to conduct engineering-scale testing of its transformational membrane technology for carbon dioxide capture from natural gas combined cycle flue gas.
