The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) intends to issue a 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.
EERE anticipates that the FOA may include 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
EERE plans to issue the FOA on or about August 2022 via the EERE eXCHANGE website https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/. If Applicants wish to receive official notifications and information from EERE regarding this FOA, they should register in EERE eXCHANGE. When the FOA is released, applications will be accepted only through EERE eXCHANGE.
