About this opportunity

This request for information (RFI) from the Department of Energy's Advanced Materials Manufacturing Technologies Office (AMMTO) seeks feedback on their assessment of high-impact opportunities for developing next-generation harsh environment materials (HEMs) and manufacturing processes. The purpose is to ensure AMMTO's technology assessments are optimally positioned to guide future investments in advanced materials designed for harsh service environments. The goal is to identify opportunities to advance HEM components with extended life and higher reliability to improve energy efficiency, reduce emissions, and lower costs in electric energy production/conversion, energy storage, and energy utilization technologies. This RFI falls under the Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086) and is not a funding opportunity; AMMTO is not accepting applications through this request. The RFI is open to feedback from industry, academia, research labs, government agencies, and other stakeholders, with responses due by March 15, 2025.

As this is an RFI and not a funding opportunity, no award values or budget details are provided. The scope involves research, development, and demonstration of next-generation harsh environment materials and manufacturing processes, but specific project quantities or timelines are not specified. The work is expected to be performed at recipient facilities, partner locations, and relevant field sites as part of the broader goals of the Conservation Research and Development program to advance energy efficiency, decarbonization, and sustainable technologies.

Synopsis

The National Landscape of High-Impact Crosscutting Opportunities for Next Generation Harsh Environment Materials (HEMs) and Manufacturing Process Research, Development, and Demonstration identifies the highest impact investment opportunities for high-performance materials designed for harsh service environments. Advanced, high-performance HEM components with extended life and higher reliability are needed to achieve energy efficiency gains, emissions reductions, and lowered overall costs through improvements in electric energy production/conversion, energy storage, and energy utilization technologies. The purpose of this RFI is to solicit feedback from industry, academia, research laboratories, government agencies, and other stakeholders to ensure AMMTO's technology assessments within this space are optimally positioned to allow investments that address the major opportunities and challenges. This is solely a request for information and not a Notice of funding Opportunity (NOFO). AMMTO is not accepting applications.
