Please scroll to the bottom of this page under the heading Full Announcement and Other Files and click on the link to access the Funding Opportunity Announcement and associated files. This CCPI Round 3 Announcement is seeking advanced coal-based projects that have progressed beyond the research and development stage to a point of readiness for operation at a scale that, once demonstrated, can be readily replicated and deployed into commercial practice within the electric power industry. This CCPI announcement is specifically targeting advanced coal-based systems and subsystems that capture and sequester, or put to beneficial reuse, carbon dioxide emissions. The announcement is also open to any coal-based, advanced carbon capture technologies that result in co-benefits with respect to efficiency, environmental, or economic improvements potentially capable of achieving CCPI coal technology performance levels specified in the EPACT 2005, Title IV, Subtitle A, Section 402 (Table 1). DOEs goals in this Announcement are to demonstrate at commercial scale in a commercial setting technologies that (1) operate at 90% carbon dioxide capture efficiency (2) make progress toward capture and sequestration at less than 10% increase in the COE for gasification systems and less than 35% for combustion and oxycombustion systems, and (3) make progress toward capture and sequestration of 50% of plant CO2 output at a scale sufficient to evaluate impact of the carbon capture technology on plant operations, economics, and performance. At least 300,000 tons per year of carbon dioxide emissions from the demonstration plant must be captured and sequestered or put to beneficial reuse. The carbon capture process must operate at a capture efficiency of at least 90%. A thirty day running average will be used to determine if the project successfully meets the carbon dioxide capture efficiency and the capture and sequestration or beneficial reuse rate requirements of this Announcement. Coal-based power technologies may produce heat, fuels, chemicals, hydrogen or other useful byproducts in combination with production of electricity. Proposed carbon capture technologies must be integrated within existing or new power plant facilities that use U.S mined coal or coal refuse for at least 75% of the energy input and produce electricity as at least 50% of the energy output. Project activities, including carbon dioxide capture, transport, sequestration or beneficial reuse, and monitoring, must be conducted in the United States, and projects must be at a sufficient scale to show the potential for market penetration upon successful demonstration of the technology or concept. Prospective projects must also be integrated with commercial plant operation. DOE is interested in demonstrating leading edge technologies not currently deployed in the utility marketplace, as opposed to new applications of commercial technologies or marginal improvements of commercial technologies or previously demonstrated technologies. DOE anticipates award of multiple Cooperative Agreements. The cost-share by the recipient must be at least 50% for each budget period under the Cooperative Agreement, and DOE expects the recipients share to be proportionately greater than 50% for projects with reduced technological risk or reduced uncertainty. Each project shall be broken down into phases aligned with Project Definition (optional), Design, Construction, and Demonstration/Operations. For funding purposes, projects will also be broken down into budget periods coinciding with these phases. DOEs responses to questions and comments received in response to the Draft FOA are posted on NETLs website at: http://www.netl.doe.gov/technologies/coalpower/cctc/ccpi/bibliography/program/so licitations/ccpi_3_solicitation.html See the document entitled CCPI 3 Responses to Questions and Comments.pdf
