About this opportunity
The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) has issued Request for Information (RFI 6169) to solicit input on alternative fuel production initiatives within New York State. This procurement seeks information from potential respondents to inform the development of a competitive solicitation focused on drop-in alternative fuels derived from waste-derived and biogenic feedstocks, as well as captured CO2. Key objectives include understanding the current project pipeline in New York State, identifying requirements to advance demonstration projects, and determining what barriers organizations encounter when securing financing for first-of-a-kind commercial facilities. The deliverables expected from respondents include detailed information about current projects, technical capabilities, and financing needs. Required qualifications include technology developers, project developers, financing entities, and other supply chain stakeholders who can provide relevant market and project pipeline data. The Request for Information was posted on May 22, 2026, with a response due date of October 7, 2027. Interested respondents should monitor NYSERDA's website at www.nyserda.ny.gov/funding-opportunities for any updates or modifications to the solicitation.
The RFI has no stated set-aside designations or restrictions limiting the types of organizations that may respond. The procurement explicitly welcomes participation from technology developers, project developers, financing entities, and other supply chain stakeholders without noted preferences for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in this solicitation, as this is an information-gathering phase preceding a full competitive solicitation. No specific award values or budget ranges are provided in this RFI, as the primary purpose is to gather market intelligence rather than distribute funding at this stage. Following the information collection period, NYSERDA intends to use the feedback received to structure a subsequent competitive solicitation with defined funding opportunities.
