Grant Description: LETTERS OF INTENT ARE REQUESTED NO LATER THAN July 24, 2009. PLEASE SEE PAGE 18 OF THE FOA FOR DETAILS.*** The purpose of this amendment is to 1) re-open the FOA originally issued on August 11, 2008, 2) provide a second Application Due Date (closing date) of August 24, 2009 at 8:00 PM Eastern Time, and 3) make associated programmatic and administrative changes. Additionally, this amendment makes certain changes to the Model Cooperative Agreement.*** The Clean Coal Power Initiative (CCPI) is a cost-shared collaboration between the Government and industry to increase investment in low-emission coal technology by demonstrating advanced coal-based, power generation technologies, consistent with the Energy Policy Act of 2005, Public Law 109-58 (EPACT 2005). The CCPI goal is to accelerate the readiness of advanced coal technologies for commercial deployment, thus ensuring that the United States has clean, reliable, and affordable electricity and power. By overcoming technical risks associated with bringing advanced technology to the point of commercial readiness, the CCPI accelerates the development of new coal technologies for power and hydrogen production, contributes to proving the feasibility of integrating carbon dioxide (CO2) management and power production and facilitates the movement of technologies into the marketplace that are emerging from the core research and development activities. CCPI directly supports the Climate Change Technology Program to reduce emissions of CO2, a greenhouse gas. For this Announcement, DOEs specific objective is to demonstrate advanced coal-based technologies that capture and sequester, or put to beneficial use, CO2 emissions. DOEs goals are to demonstrate at commercial scale in a commercial setting, technologies that (1) can achieve a minimum of 50% CO2 capture efficiency and make progress toward a target CO2 capture efficiency of 90% in a gas stream containing at least 10% CO2 by volume, (2) make progress toward capture and sequestration goal of less than 10% increase in the cost of electricity (COE) for gasification systems and less than 35% for combustion and oxycombustion systems all as compared to current (2008) practice, and (3) capture and sequester or put to beneficial use a minimum of 300,000 tons per year of CO2 emissions using a thirty day running average to determine if the project successfully meets the CO2 capture efficiency and the capture and sequestration or beneficial use rate requirements of this Announcement. DOE is currently developing large scale field tests of geologic CO2 sequestration in the U.S., on the order of 1 million tons of CO2 per year under a separate program. DOE is interested in allowing demonstration projects under CCPI to integrate with the sequestration field tests, which may already be fully operational by the time the CCPI projects come on-line. A project performer could, for example, attempt to integrate a CCPI project with a sequestration field test to supply lower-cost CO2, and reduce the cost of either or both projects. This would require careful cooperation or integration of the management of both projects.
