Cooperative Agreement FC2601CH11080

Innio Waukesha Gas Engines Inc. was awarded a $2.23 million cooperative agreement from the Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy (ARPA-E) program. The project aims to develop an ultra-low methane slip reciprocating engine that will reduce methane emissions by 82% while maintaining engine effectiveness over the lifetime of the engine. In addition, carbon monoxide, volatile organic compound, and formaldehyde emissions will be decreased with no effect on nitrogen oxide...

Under a $3,230,673 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086), Purdue University is leading the development and validation of a technology that enables cost-effective utilization of spark-ignited hydrogen (H2) combustion engines in off-road vehicles. The project aims to create a high energy-efficient hybrid excavator powered by a hydrogen combustion engine. As sub-awardees, Cummins Inc. and Bosch Rexroth...

This federal Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy under the Conservation Research and Development (CFDA 81.086) program provides $1,375,000 in funding to Louisiana Tech University. The objective of this 3-year project, running from May 2024 to April 2027, is to test and evaluate legacy compression ignition (CI) engines with hydrogen (H2) pre-combustion injection technology across multiple engine sizes and model years....

This federal Cooperative Agreement award of $3,611,961, provided by the Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy under the Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086), aims to develop a hydrogen-fueled heavy-duty internal combustion engine. The project objectives are to enable high specific power (>100% diesel engine power), high efficiency (parity with diesel baseline at 44%), and ultra-low emissions. The prime recipient, Mahle Powertrain,...

Mahle Powertrain, LLC was awarded a $1.88 million cooperative agreement from the Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy to develop advanced low temperature methane oxidation catalysts for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from lean-burn natural gas engines. The three-year project, titled "Reduction of GHG Emissions from Lean-Burn Natural Gas Engines Using Advanced Low Temperature Methane Oxidation Catalysts," aims to design new catalyst formulations capable...

This $3,167,737 Cooperative Agreement, awarded on July 19, 2024 by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (CFDA 81.086 Conservation Research and Development), aims to demonstrate a transient-capable medium-duty off-road engine fueled by renewable dimethyl ether (DME) with a combustion recipe designed for ultra-low NOx emissions. The project involves several key activities: 1) Commissioning a single-cylinder research engine at Colorado State University to...

The Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy awarded a $3,755,132 Cooperative Agreement under the Conservation Research and Development (CFDA 81.086) program to Paccar Inc. to develop and demonstrate a heavy-duty hydrogen internal combustion engine (H2-ICE) that meets the USEPA 2027 ultra-low NOx emissions standards using H2-based selective catalytic reduction (H2-SCR) technology. The key products and services to be delivered under this 1-year grant include:...

The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management awarded a $6,702,516 Cooperative Agreement under the Fossil Energy Research and Development (CFDA 81.089) federal grant program to Radical Combustion Technologies NG, LLC on January 15, 2025. The primary objective of this project is to deploy RCTClean technology across a range of natural gas-fueled compressor engines to demonstrate significant reductions in methane slip (35-60% or more) and nitrogen oxides emissions...
