Fiscal Year 2020 H2@Scale New Markets FOA: The technology improvements necessary to advance H2@Scale encompass four main focus areas—better ways to MAKE, MOVE, USE, and STORE hydrogen. The initial H2@Scale FOA, released by EERE in FY19, focused on enabling R&D in these areas—and also funded first-of-kind pilot demonstrations of integrated systems with on-site nuclear power and multiple renewable energy sources. The key to continued advancement of H2@Scale is scaling up affordable hydrogen and fuel cell technology options for expanded supply and demand, enabled in part by continued R&D. This “H2@Scale New Markets FOA” will provide more than $64M in Federal funding to advance the focus areas of H2@Scale and support EERE's core priorities. Highlighting the importance of scaling up hydrogen use across sectors, this FOA will include more novel demonstration projects for several emerging new markets and applications. Topics under this FOA to advance H2@Scale include: Topic 1: Electrolyzer Manufacturing R&D Topic 2: Advanced Carbon Fiber for Compressed Hydrogen and Natural Gas Storage Tanks Topic 3: Fuel Cell R&D for Heavy Duty Applications Subtopic 3a: Membranes for Heavy-Duty Applications Subtopic 3b: Domestically Manufactured Fuel Cells for Heavy-Duty Applications Topic 4: H2@Scale New Markets R&D—HySteel Topic 5: H2@Scale New Markets Demonstrations Subtopic 5a: Maritime Demonstrations Subtopic 5b: Data Center Demonstrations Topic 6: Training and Workforce Development for Emerging Hydrogen Technologies The full FOA is posted on the EERE Exchange website at https://eere-exchange.energy.gov.
