Grant Description: NOTE: This descriptive area provides an overview ofArea of Interest 3 only.YOU MUST READ THE ENTIRE FUNDING OPPORTUNITY ANNOUNCEMENT DOCUMENT FORDETAILSON ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, EVALUATION CRITERIA AND HOW TO PREPARE ANAPPLICATION UNDER AN AREA OF INTEREST. Please scroll to the bottom of thispageto access the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA Master.doc).Area of Interest 3: NOVEL FUEL CELLS FOR COAL BASED SYSTEMSObjective: The objective of this topic is to develop and demonstratelow-costnovel fuel cell designs appropriate for megawatt scale coal-based systems.Project Description: This topic area is focused on developing anddemonstratinglow-cost novel fuel cell designs appropriate for megawatt scale coal-basedsystems. The fuel cells shall use direct coal or raw coal syngas as thefueltype. It is expected that solid coal will include common contaminantspeciations and concentrations wheras the gaseous coal-derived fuel willhavethe contaminants at a level of 30 ppm. The fuel cell stack cost goal,including manifolds, interconnects, contact paste and seals, is $100/kW orless. Phase I will consist of design, identification of key performanceparameters of the system, and cost analysis of the stack and system cost.PhaseII will include development and validation of the low-cost novel fuel cellstack.Award Value: DOE anticipates that awards will be $240,000 for Phase I($200,000DOE Share and at least 20% Cost Share) and $600,000 for Phase II ($500,000DOEShare and at least 20% Cost Share).Interested parties looking to submit an application under this area ofinterestcan download the application package at the following link:http://apply.grants.gov/apply/UpdateOffer?id=9966
