About this opportunity

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) through its Glenn Research Center to explore the development of a cryogenic hydrogen test facility aimed at advancing aeronautic technologies. This special notice seeks input from potential stakeholders regarding the creation of a national capability that can support innovative materials, components, and technological developments in hydrogen-based applications. Leveraging NASA's extensive 70+ years of experience in hydrogen handling, the agency is looking to gather comprehensive insights into testing, materials, facilities, and potential collaboration opportunities. The RFI represents a strategic effort to understand the current landscape and future needs for hydrogen technology testing across various sectors.

Contractors and interested parties are invited to submit detailed PDF responses addressing 16 specific questions across four key categories: Testing, Materials, Facilities, and Collaboration. The RFI is open to academic institutions, public and private businesses of all sizes, with responses limited to 10 pages and due by February 21, 2025, at 3:00 PM EST. Submissions should be sent directly to Contracting Officer Ian Park via email. NASA emphasizes that this is not a Request for Proposal and does not constitute a funding commitment, but rather a mechanism to gather information that may inform future solicitations. The agency is particularly interested in understanding current hydrogen testing capabilities, future testing requirements, material property needs, infrastructure considerations, training needs, and potential partnership opportunities. Respondents should note that NASA may share submitted information with other federal agencies and is seeking broad perspectives on hydrogen technology development nationwide.
