The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) issued a new funding opportunity announcement (FOA) to advance energy storage technologies.
The objective of the FOA is to develop energy storage technologies for existing fossil-fueled power plants, as well as new power plants and other fossil energy systems platforms beyond electric power, including industrial, distributed generation, poly-generation, waste heat recovery, and other innovative nontraditional concepts. The technology would be capable of improving the overall performance, reliability, and flexibility of fossil-fueled assets – including power generating facilities, poly-generation facilities, and suitable industrial applications, among others.
The Office of Fossil Energy (FE) is looking to leverage the low-cost production of hydrogen from fossil fuels with zero or near-zero emissions. This would facilitate energy storage that can support the use of domestic energy supplies and affordability, improve domestic energy production and use, and enhance the security and reliability of energy infrastructure.
The announcement falls under FE’s new Advanced Energy Storage program, which supports DOE’s Energy Storage Grand Challenge. NETL officials will provide an update on the Advanced Energy Storage Program at a webinar scheduled on April 22 from 11 a.m. to noon EDT.
For this opportunity, DOE is considering compiling a Teaming Partner List to facilitate the formation of new project teams. This will allow entities to participate as a team member on an application if they do not wish to apply as the prime applicant.
