About this file
This document is a Selection Announcement for Areas of Interest (AOI) 4A and 4B under Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) DE-FOA-0003105, issued by the Department of Energy (DOE).
The announcement states that the DOE has completed the selection process for AOI 4A and 4B, and provides details on the selected applicants and their proposed projects. For AOI 4A, the selected applicants are Idaho National Laboratory, Iowa State University, and The Pennsylvania State University, who plan to develop novel decarbonized pathways for manufacturing high-purity synthetic graphite, integrate copper waste recycling with hydrogen production, and research the materials science and engineering of boron nitride, respectively. For AOI 4B, the selected applicant is Aspen Aerogels, Inc., who plans to scale up their lithium iron phosphate-based battery technology for use in electric vehicles.
The remaining AOIs (1A&B, 2A&B, 3, and 5) are still under merit review. Selected applicants will receive a Successful Applicant Letter from the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) to conduct award negotiations and administer the resulting agreements, while unsuccessful applicants will receive an Unsuccessful Applicant Letter with additional information regarding the evaluation of their application.

Selection Announcement for Area of Interest 4 A&B
The Department of Energy (DOE) has completed the selection process for AOI 4A and 4B of FOA DE-FOA-0003105, and the following applications have been selected for award negotiations.
• Idaho National Laboratory, Battelle Energy Alliance LLC (GRANT14036054 -AOI 4A) plans to develop a novel and fully domestic decarbonized pathway to manufacture high-purity synthetic graphite, along with other durable carbon-based materials, from carbon dioxide-based feedstocks.
• Iowa State University of Science and Technology (GRANT14033811-AOI 4A) plans to integrate the conversion of copper waste generated through the recycling of permanent magnets with highly energy-efficient chemical processes for producing hydrogen.
• The Pennsylvania State University (GRANT14036646- AOI 4A) plans to research the materials science and engineering of boron nitride and its potential application in the manufacture of semiconductor devices as an alternative to gallium, almost none of which is produced in the United States.
• Aspen Aerogels, Inc. (GRANT14034589 -AOI 4B) plans to scale up their lithium iron phosphate-based battery technology from bench‐scale to pilot‐scale for use in electric vehicles— as an alternative to lithium‐ion batteries that require key critical materials, such as nickel and cobalt, that are largely sourced from outside the United States.
The remaining AOIs are still under merit review: 1A&B, 2A&B, 3, and 5.
Selected applicants will receive a Successful Applicant Letter from personnel at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), who will conduct the award negotiations and administer the resulting agreements. Applicants who are not selected will receive an Unsuccessful Applicant Letter from NETL with additional information regarding the evaluation of their application.
