About this program

The Department of Transportation's RITA Hydrogen program (CFDA 20.704) has not issued new grant awards since September 2006, making current pursuit of funding under this listing inadvisable without first confirming whether the program remains active.

The program is designed to fund research grants to nonprofit institutions of higher learning for transportation-related research, education, and technology transfer concerning propulsion technology and alternative fuels. The single award on record—a $232 thousand Project Grant to support a Center for Hydrogen Storage Research, completed in September 2006—suggests the program historically targeted hydrogen storage and fuel cell propulsion research conducted by academic recipients.

The grant award portfolio shows no activity in the past twenty years. The most recent (and only recorded) award was issued on September 8, 2006, representing the sole data point in the program's recent history captured in this portfolio. No recent grant opportunities are posted or advertised.

Before investing business development resources, confirm the program's current operational status with the Department of Transportation. It is possible the program has been superseded, consolidated, or placed in abeyance. If the program remains formally active but dormant, monitor DOT announcements and the Grants.gov platform for any resumed solicitation activity. If you have pipeline interest in hydrogen propulsion or fuel cell research funding from federal sources, explore active DOT research programs under other CFDA listings or successor funding vehicles that may have absorbed this program's scope.
