NOI to issue Funding Opportunity Announcement DE-FOA-0002402, Titled: Carbon Capture R&D: Bench Scale Testing of Direct Air Capture Components (TRL 3) and Initial Engineering Design for Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage Systems from Air (TRL 6)

Original Closing Date: 01/14/2021

The Department of Energy National Energy Technology Laboratory intends to issue a Funding Opportunity Announcement DE-FOA-0002402 on behalf of the Office of Fossil Energy.  The Funding Opportunity Announcement is anticipated to be issued in January 2021.  

This Funding Opportunity Announcement supports the Department of Energy’s Carbon Capture program by developing lower cost, scalable technologies for carbon dioxide capture from air.  Projects under this FOA are expected to fall under two areas of interest.  The first area is bench-scale testing of structured material systems or component designs for optimized direct air capture.  The second area is initial engineering design of carbon capture utilization and storage systems for direct air capture.  The case study host sites in the second area expected to be located exclusively in the U.S. Additional Details can be found at: FedConnect and Grants.gov.
