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.
