The Energy Storage Pilot Demonstrations program, managed by the Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED), supports pilot-scale demonstrations for non-lithium, long-duration energy storage solutions. The program aims to advance technical maturity, reduce uncertainty in cost and performance, generate operational datasets, and increase investor and end-user confidence. The total DOE funding available is up to $100 million, with project funding ranging from $5 million to $20 million DOE share, requiring a minimum of 50 percent non-Federal cost share. Projects must demonstrate long-duration (10 hour) discharge capabilities and have a clear path to commercialization.

The "Carbon Management" grant, offered by the Department of Energy, provides $78.4 million in funding for U.S. organizations to develop and test technologies for capturing, removing, converting, and storing carbon to combat climate change, with applications due by October 14, 2024.

The "Climate Resilient Cities Activities in India Addendum to the Locally Led Development Annual Program Statement (APS) No. 7200AA24APS00006" grant is a special call by USAID/India for local entities to submit concepts for climate resilient projects in at least two cities among Mumbai, Bengaluru, Bhiwadi, and Guwahati, with a total funding of $4 million for two or more awards, each not exceeding $2 million, for an initial period of three years.

The City of Naperville is offering grants ranging from $10,000 to $100,000, with a total of $100,000 approved, for opioid remediation programs and services. These reimbursement-based grants require grantees to accrue costs before seeking reimbursement. The program's core mission is to combat the opioid crisis within Naperville by funding interventions that align with approved abatement programs under settlement restrictions. This initiative directly addresses a critical public health issue and reflects a strategic priority of the city to foster community well-being and safety. The primary target beneficiaries of this grant program are Naperville residents who are directly or indirectly affected by opioid misuse, including individuals struggling with addiction, their families, and the broader community. The impact goals are to reduce opioid overdoses, expand access to treatment and recovery services, prevent opioid misuse, and promote harm reduction strategies. The program aims to create a healthier and safer environment for residents by supporting comprehensive and evidence-based interventions. The program prioritizes a range of services and programs that qualify as Approved Abatement Programs. These include expanding the distribution of Naloxone or other FDA-approved overdose reversal drugs, providing medication-assisted treatment to uninsured or underinsured individuals, and expanding treatment and recovery support services such as residential care, intensive outpatient treatment, and recovery housing. Additionally, the grants will support screening and treatment services for pregnant and postpartum women, warm hand-off programs for individuals in recovery, and evidence-based education in school-based and youth-focused programs to prevent opioid misuse. Syringe service programs, community drug disposal programs, and public education campaigns are also prioritized. Expected outcomes include a measurable reduction in opioid overdose fatalities and non-fatal overdoses, an increase in the number of individuals receiving effective opioid treatment and recovery support, and a decrease in opioid misuse rates, especially among youth. The program anticipates an expansion of access to life-saving Naloxone and medication-assisted treatment, improved support for vulnerable populations like pregnant and postpartum women, and enhanced community awareness regarding opioid prevention and safe disposal. Measurable results will be tracked through metrics such as the number of Naloxone kits distributed, individuals served by treatment programs, participation in educational initiatives, and the volume of disposed medications.
