Additional Information on Eligibility

This Announcement is open to all entities other than National Laboratories. However National Laboratories are eligible to team as subcontrators under the prime for this effort.

Grant Description

The Department of Energy (DOE) seeks to develop a durable, direct hydrogen fuel cell power system that reaches a peak efficiency of 60% and has a power density of 650 W/L, a specific power of 650 W/kg and a cost of $45/kW by 2010 ($30/kW by 2015). Additional technical performance and cost targets have been developed for components and sub-systems that comprise a complete fuel cell system. The research and development sought through this funding announcement will be focused on advancing fuel cell technology towards the 2010 technical performance and cost targets developed through the FreedomCAR and Fuel Partnership and detailed in the DOE Hydrogen, Fuel Cells, and Infrastructure Technologies Program Multi-Year RD D Plan (MYPP), http://www.eere.energy.gov/hydrogenandfuelcells/mypp/. The technologies must be scalable to be suitable across the spectrum of vehicle platforms. The targets are revised periodically to reflect advances in the technology. 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 Interacitve Procurement System (IIPS) at http://e-center.doe.gov.
