Description

The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) hereby issues Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) entitled “Funding Opportunity in Support of the Hydrogen Shot and a University Research Consortium on Grid Resilience,” that will address two unique areas of interest: one with topic areas focused on supporting the DOE Hydrogen Shot on behalf of the Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office and a second EERE-wide topic area focused on grid resilience through a university research consortium. This FOA includes the following five topics under two Areas of Interest, as follows: Area of Interest 1: Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies in Support of Hydrogen Shot Topic 1) HydroGEN: Solar Fuels from Photoelectrochemical and Solar Thermochemical Water Splitting Topic 2) Development and Validation of Sensor Technology for Monitoring and Measuring Hydrogen Losses Topic 3) Materials-based H2 Storage Demonstrations Topic 4) M2FCT: High Performing, Durable, and Low-PGM Catalysts/Membrane Electrode Assemblies (MEAs) for Medium- and Heavy-duty Applications Area of Interest 2: Improving Electricity Grid Resilience Topic 5) University Research Consortium on Grid Resilience Applicants must submit a Concept Paper by 5:00pm ET on the due date listed in the FOA to be eligible to submit a Full Application. Concept Papers and Applications will be accepted only through EERE eXCHANGE. Applicants that experience issues with submissions PRIOR to the Deadline: In the event that an Applicant experiences technical difficulties with a submission, the Applicant should contact the eXCHANGE helpdesk for assistance (exchangehelp@hq.doe.gov).
