Request for Information: Manufacturability Pre-Production Design Implications of Energy Storage Technologies

This RFI seeks information on domestic pre-production manufacturability challenges that energy storage technology developers face when making design decisions that impact scaling the technology for production. This is solely a request for information and is not a Funding Opportunity Announcement. The Department of Energy is not accepting applications to this Request for Information. The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Electricity (OE) Energy Storage Division has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to gather input on pre-production design challenges associated with the manufacturability of energy storage technologies. This RFI targets technologies with a Manufacturing Readiness Level (MRL) of 7 or lower, focusing on overcoming barriers to domestic production and scaling. The DOE seeks feedback from various stakeholders to inform its research and development activities aimed at improving the manufacturability of energy storage systems.
