About this opportunity

The Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management, in collaboration with the National Energy Technology Laboratory, is issuing a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to solicit applications for cooperative agreements to support research and development of sustainable feedstocks and conversion technologies. The goal is to produce fuels, materials, and carbon-based products that can help achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, targeting technologies that can supply 100% of aviation fuel, 50% of maritime/rail/off-road fuel, and 50% of carbon-based chemicals from sustainable carbon resources. The FOA has two topic areas: Topic Area 1 will provide up to $12 million for engineering-scale testing of electrochemical systems for converting carbon oxides into value-added products, while Topic Area 2 will provide up to $4 million for feasibility studies on retrofitting refineries and petrochemical facilities for carbon conversion. Eligible applicants include domestic entities such as institutions of higher education, for-profit entities, non-profit entities, state and local governments, and Indian Tribes. Full applications are due by August 27, 2024, with expected award notifications by January 15, 2025 and award negotiations to be completed by May 30, 2025.

The funding for this opportunity is provided through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and will be administered under the Fossil Energy Research and Development program (CFDA 81.089). Projects are expected to be performed at locations across the United States, including disadvantaged communities, research laboratories, and industrial sites.

Update #3 · Latest ·

Modification 000001: The purpose of this modification is to update wording within the Topic Area descriptions to clarify the Funding Opportunity Announcement does not restrict conversion of carbon oxides, change instances of "CO2" to "carbon" throughout the Funding Opportunity Announcement, and clarify the medium-term test requirement for Topic Area 1. - Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) - Clean Fuels & Products Shot: Supporting Carbon Utilization Products via Electrochemical Conversion and Refinery and Petrochemical Facilities Retrofitting The Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) in collaboration with the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) is issuing this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). Awards made under this FOA will be funded, in whole or in part, with funds appropriated by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, more commonly known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL). The activities to be funded under this Funding Opportunity Announcement support BIL Section 40302. Research and Development funded under this Funding Opportunity Announcement will support the Department's Clean Fuels & Products Shots initiative, which was established to support the national goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 by developing the sustainable feedstocks and conversion technologies necessary to produce crucial fuels, materials, and carbon-based products that are better for the environment than current petroleum-derived components. It aims to meet projected 2050 net-zero emissions demands for 100 percent of aviation fuel; 50 percent of maritime, rail, and off-road fuel; and 50 percent of carbon-based chemicals by using sustainable carbon resources.
