The "Carbon Capture, Removal, and Conversion Test Centers" grant from the U.S. Department of Energy aims to fund the establishment and expansion of test centers for developing and commercializing technologies that capture, remove, and convert carbon dioxide emissions from large sources like power plants and industrial facilities, in an effort to achieve a carbon-free power sector by 2035 and a net-zero greenhouse gas economy by 2050.

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 grant titled DE-FOA-0003426: RFI Microelectronics Energy Efficiency Scaling for 2 Decades (EES2) R Roadmap Public Feedback is a request by the U.S. Department of Energy for stakeholders to provide feedback on a roadmap for improving the energy efficiency of computing technologies over the next two decades, with responses due by September 30, 2024.

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.

This funding opportunity is designed to support innovative research and development projects that improve the manufacturability and scalability of energy storage technologies for stationary applications, helping to reduce production costs and enhance the energy grid's resilience.

The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) intends to issue, on behalf of the Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO), a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) entitled Oceans of Opportunity: U.S. Wave Energy Open Water Testing. This FOA supports WPTOs efforts to advance the commercial readiness of wave energy technologies through open water testing and system validation at multiple scales, serving the broader goals of the Biden administration to achieve carbon pollution-free electricity by 2035 and to deliver an equitable, clean energy future, and put the United States on a path to achieve net-zero emissions, economy-wide, by no later than 2050 to the benefit of all Americans. Topic Area 1 leverages wave energy technologies that provide power to distributed blue economy applications. Topic Area 2 aims to develop functional wave energy technologies for coastal and island stakeholders (may or may not be grid-connected). Topic Area 3 allows for maturing grid connected technologies that demonstrate reliable power generation direct to a utility. This notice of intent (NOI) is issued so that interested parties are aware of EEREs intention to issue this FOA in the near term. All of the information contained in this Notice is subject to change. EERE will not respond to questions concerning this NOI. Once the FOA has been released, EERE will provide an avenue for potential applicants to submit questions. Complete information, including the full Notice of Intent, can be found on the EERE Exchange website: https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/
