Additional Information on Eligibility

All types of domestic entities, including DOE/NNSA National Laboratory Contractors, are eligible to apply, except other Federal agencies, non-DOE Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) Contractors, and nonprofit organizations described in section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that engaged in lobbying activities after December 31, 1995. All applicants, including DOE/NNSA National Laboratory Contractor applicants, must perform 50% or more of the work as determined by the cost of their portion of the total award cost.

Grant Description

A link to the full Funding Opportunity Announcement is found by scrolling to the bottom of this page. This Funding Opportunity Announcement requests applications in the following categories:Category 1 - Hydrogen Compression: Current hydrogen compression includes the use of reciprocating, diaphragm, and intensifier compression technology. Research proposals are sought for improved hydrogen compression technology for hydrogen pipeline transmission (100,000 -1,000,000 kg/day throughput with compression from 300 psi to 1,000-2,000 psi) to improve reliability, reduce capital cost, and improve energy efficiency. Research proposals are also sought for improved compressors for refueling sites (50-4,000 kg/day hydrogen throughput with compression from 50-200 psi to 5000-12,000 psi) to improve reliability and reduce capital cost. Improvements to current compression technology, the use of more novel compression technology such as electrochemical compression, metal hydride compression approaches, or other approaches that can meet these challenges will all be considered.Category 2 - Hydrogen Storage for Stationary Applications and Gaseous Truck Delivery: In order to effectively handle hourly, weekday to weekend, and seasonal hydrogen demand variations, the hydrogen production and delivery infrastructure will require cost effective bulk stationary storage of hydrogen. Research proposals are sought to develop lower-cost bulk hydrogen gaseous storage technology that can ultimately approach the long-term targets of 300 dollars/kg of hydrogen stored capital cost and greater than 35 kg of hydrogen/cubic meter of storage volume.Category 3 - Hydrogen Liquefaction: Cryogenic liquid hydrogen has a much higher volumetric density than gaseous hydrogen resulting in much lower transport and storage costs. Research proposals are sought to dramatically reduce the cost and increase the energy efficiency of hydrogen liquefaction. Category 4 - Hydrogen Production via Electrolysis: One of the distributed hydrogen production technologies with good near-term potential for development and commercialization is small-scale water electrolysis located at the point of use. Research proposals are sought to develop technologies that meet DOE cost targets. The cost targets are: (1) by 2012, develop technologies for distributed electrolysis hydrogen production at 3.70 dollars/gge delivered (less than 3.00 dollars/gge delivered by 2017); and (2) by 2012, develop technologies for central wind electrolysis hydrogen production at 3.10 dollars/gge at plant gate (4.80 dollars/gge delivered) and less than 2.00 dollars/gge at plant gate by 2017 (less than 3.00 dollars/gge delivered).Note: Applicants may submit multiple applications, each covering any single category. However, applicants may not submit a single application that covers more than one category listed above (i.e., separate applications must be submitted for each category).Applications for this Funding Opportunity Announcement must be accessed, completed, and submitted through Grants.gov at http://www.grants.gov to be considered for award. Questions regarding the content of the announcement should be submitted through the Submit Question feature of the DOE Industry Interactive Procurement System (IIPS) at http://e-center.doe.gov. VERY IMPORTANT: To complete and submit applications through Grants.gov, there are several actions you must complete (e.g., obtain a Dun and Bradstreet Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number, register with the Central Contract Registry (CCR), install the PureEdge Viewer, register with the credential provider, and register with Grants.gov). Applicants are highly encouraged to register as soon as possible and should allow at least 21 days to complete the registration process. When done, call the Grants.gov Helpdesk at 1-800-518-4726 to verify successful registration. Registration Instructions are found on the Grants.gov web site at http://www.grants.gov and in the Funding Opportunity Announcement.Should you have questions regarding the operation of Grants.gov, please contact the Grants.gov Contact Center at support@grants.gov or 1-800-518-4726. Contact Center hours of operation are Monday - Friday from 7:00am to 9:00pm Eastern Standard Time.
