Synopsis

MARAD is specifically seeking to provide cost share funding through a cooperative agreement(s) for one or more projects that offer the potential for advancement and improvement of energy efficiency/emissions reduction for marine vessel operations. The MARAD cost share will not exceed 50% of the total project cost. Collaborative partnerships with other entities such as industry, ports, maritime organizations, and state or local governments are highly encouraged. This announcement is an expression of interest only and does not commit MARAD to make any award. The total amount of funding under the RFP will be up to $1,000,000.Proposals must demonstrate a hybrid or battery electric technology for a workboat application. For this demonstration, workboats are considered to be coastal, inland, regional, or captive fleet tugs, tow or pushboats operating in the commercial U.S. maritime sector. Proposals must provide sufficient, verifiable, and detailed data that describes the technology, integration of the technology, and operational characteristics of the workboat. Proposals shall describe the power management system, and if batteries are proposed, the battery charging system. In addition, the proposal must include a method of verifying energy efficiency and/or emission reductions of the technology during demonstration. This may include fuel use data, in-situ emissions testing, power meter readings, or other proposed method subject to MARAD approval.
