The federal grant notice titled "Promoting Domestic and International Consensus on Clean Fossil Energy and Carbon Management Technologies" is being offered by the Headquarters agency. The grant is a Cooperative Agreement in the category of Energy. The grant does not require cost sharing or matching. The opportunity is posted on grants.gov and falls under the discretionary funding category. The CFDA number associated with this grant is 81.089. The eligible applicants for this grant are unrestricted. The grant aims to promote the development and adoption of clean fossil energy and carbon management technologies. The Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) is focused on minimizing the environmental impacts of fossil fuels and working towards achieving net-zero emissions. The programs under FECM use research, development, demonstration, and deployment approaches to advance technologies that reduce carbon emissions and other environmental impacts of fossil fuel production and use. The priority areas of technology work include point-source carbon capture, hydrogen with carbon management, methane emissions reduction, critical mineral production, and carbon dioxide removal. FECM recognizes the importance of global decarbonization through carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and aims to engage with international colleagues to leverage expertise in this area. The office is also committed to improving the conditions of communities impacted by the legacy of fossil fuel use and supporting a healthy economic transition that accelerates the growth of good-paying jobs. The grant opportunity focuses on two program areas. The first program area is Carbon Management Technologies, which aims to enable the demonstration and deployment of technologies for carbon management in a just and sustainable way. The goal is to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by mid-century. The grant seeks to partner with organizations to provide consultation, analysis, and cooperation in the field of carbon management technology. This includes engaging recognized experts to provide advice and assistance to decision-makers, conducting analyses and preparing studies on selected topics, and developing outreach materials tailored for domestic and international audiences. The second program area is Domestic and International Oil, Natural Gas, Methane Hydrates, Hydrogen, and Critical Minerals. The focus of this program area is to reduce the environmental impacts and emissions associated with fossil energy development, use, transportation, and storage. The grant seeks to engage recognized experts in global oil, natural gas, hydrogen, and critical minerals to provide advice and assistance to government and private decision-makers. It also aims to develop market analyses, technical studies, workshops, and stakeholder events to promote understanding and education on topics related to oil, natural gas, hydrogen, and critical minerals. The grant opportunity provides support for conferences, workshops, and events that benefit the public by allowing the exchange of information and best practices in the development of clean energy technologies. It also supports bilateral and regional initiatives and activities with global partners to promote collaboration and knowledge sharing. The grant has an award ceiling of $10,000,000 and an award floor of $1. The expected number of awards is 2. The close date for this grant is September 30, 2024. The last updated date for the grant information is April 3, 2024. The archive date for the grant is October 30, 2024.

TECHNOLOGIES TO EMEND AND OBVIATE SYNTHETIC NITROGEN’S TOLL ON EMISSIONS (TEOSYNTE SBIR/STTR)

Active

Advanced Research Projects Agency Energy

The federal grant notice titled "TECHNOLOGIES TO EMEND AND OBVIATE SYNTHETIC NITROGEN'S TOLL ON EMISSIONS (TEOSYNTE SBIR/STTR)" is being offered by the Advanced Research Projects Agency Energy (ARPA-E), a part of the Department of Energy (DOE). This grant opportunity falls under the category of Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The purpose of this grant is to support the development of technologies that can lower nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from the cultivation of corn and sorghum used for ethanol production in the United States. The program aims to reduce N2O emissions by 50% while maintaining crop yields and lowering the application of synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilizer on corn and sorghum fields. By reducing the requirements of synthetic N fertilizer, this program will not only lower N2O emissions but also decrease costs for farmers. The technologies developed under this grant will have the potential to transform agriculture and reduce the carbon intensity (CI) of ethanol produced for light-duty vehicles and sustainable aviation fuel. The program has specific targets that must be achieved to meet its objectives of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and N fertilizer usage over multiple seasons. Small businesses are eligible to apply for this grant opportunity. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, and the funding instrument type is "Other." The estimated total program funding is $36,000,000, with an award ceiling of $10,000,000 and an award floor of $1,000,000. The expected number of awards is currently set at 0. The deadline for submissions to this grant opportunity is August 13, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time. Applicants are strongly encouraged to submit their applications at least 48 hours in advance of the due date. To obtain a copy of the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) and apply, interested applicants must register with and submit application materials through ARPA-E eXCHANGE. For more information and detailed guidance on using ARPA-E eXCHANGE, applicants can visit the ARPA-E website at https://arpa-e-foa.energy.gov.
