Master Announcement: SOLID STATE ENERGY CONVERSION ALLIANCE (SECA) CORE TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM: NOTE: This is a descriptive overview only of the Funding Opportunity announcement. You must read the entire Funding Opportunity Master Announcement (attached below) for additional information, evaluation criteria and application preparation instructions. Additionally, please note that this funding opportunity contains two program areas of interest, each containing multiple sub-areas of interest. Applications can not be submitted directly under this master announcement but must be submitted under the sub-area of interest which best fits the majority of the effort to be performed. The sub-areas of interest to which applications can be submitted are listed below. NOTE: On November 30, 2000, the Department of Energy executed a determination titled "Exceptional Circumstance Determination for Inventions Arising Under SECA." This Determination finds that circumstances surrounding SECA are exceptional and justify modified intellectual property arrangements as allowed by the Bayh-Dole Act (35 U.S.C. 202(a)(ii)). Refer to Articles 8.6 through 8.8 and Enclosure 1 to the Funding Opportunity Master Announcement for details. SUMMARY The Department of Energy (DOE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) is seeking applications for the funding opportunity announcement entitled, "Solid State Energy Conversion Alliance (SECA) Core Technology Program." DOE anticipates awarding approximately thirteen (13) cooperative agreements under this Program Announcement. This particular program is covered by Section 3001 and 3002 of the Energy Policy Act (EPAct), 42 U.S.C. 13542 for financial assistance awards and requires a cost share commitment of at least 20 percent from non-federal sources for research and development projects. Approximately $7,000,000 in total funding is expected to be available under this announcement. The purpose of the SECA Core Technology announcement is to develop science and technologies that address specific technical challenges and barriers faced by the SECA Industrial Teams. The DOE goal for SECA Industrial Teams is to develop a 3 kilowatt (kW) - 10kW solid-oxide fuel cell system including stack and balance of plant that has a Factory Cost of $400/kW by 2010. The goal is to develop solid-oxide fuel cell power systems that have broad applicability via use of mass customization techniques. Development of solid-oxide fuel cell power systems that are applicable to stationary, mobile, and military applications with minimal differences in core module components is desired. DOE considers the development of "high power density" (e.g., > nominal 500mA/cm2 at 0.7 volts per cell) solid-oxide fuel cells an important component of meeting the 2010 cost goal. A goal of DOE is to encourage the entry of one or more fuel cell systems developed in the SECA program into one or more commercial markets at the earliest possible date. The main objective of the Core Technology Program is to develop science and technologies that will be adopted by the SECA Industrial Teams to increase their success in developing commercially-viable solid-oxide fuel cell power systems. The SECA Core Technology Program provides a direct link for Core Technology participants to market new technology developments to an established customer base via the SECA Industrial Teams. It is expected that this program structure should significantly shorten the time period between Core Technology development and commercialization of same technologies. The SECA Core Technology Program will be coordinated with work conducted by the SECA Industrial Teams through the NETL-led SECA Project Management Team. The following website provides additional information on the SECA Program including the program structure and information on the Core Technology component: www.seca.doe.gov. This SECA Core Technology announcement focuses on specific sub-areas of interest under two Core Technology areas of interest: (1) Materials; and (2) Fuel Processing. Applications may only be submitted to one of the following sub-areas of interest: Area of Interest 1: Materials Area of Interest 1 is comprised of four separate sub-areas of interest to which an application may be submitted. Please click on the following links for additional information under each sub-area of interest and to submit an application.
