The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Technology Transitions (OTT) announced their Notice of Intent (NOI) to issue a call for proposals from DOE National Laboratories, Plants, and Sites for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 Core Laboratory Infrastructure for Market Readiness (CLIMR) Lab Call. The goal of OTT's Technology Commercialization Fund (TCF) is to improve America’s energy competitiveness and security by accelerating commercialization of critical energy technologies to market. DOE anticipates releasing the FY25 CLIMR Lab Call in October 2024.

The U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy this week announced $18 million for nine projects to accelerate research that supports the detection and quantification of hydrogen emissions throughout the supply chain.

Today, an interagency team led by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and U.S. Department of Transportation’s (DOT’s) Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) released the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Grand Challenge: Tracking Metrics and Mid-2024 Dashboard. USDA Secretary Thomas Vilsack made the announcement at the North American SAF Conference in St. Paul, Minnesota. The Metrics Dashboard summarizes actions and progress to help drive innovation and expand the production and use of SAF to meet the Grand Challenge target of 3 billion gallons of SAF in the United States by 2030.
