The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to the University of Hawaii at Manoa for the synthesis and characterization of magnesium boride etherates, their reversible hydrogen cycling, and the optimization of magnesium boride etherates hydrogen storage properties. Project work would occur within dedicated laboratory facilities at the University of Hawaii. This is a three-year research project that includes three budget periods. A previous NEPA determination (GFO-0007654-001) was completed for Budget Period (BP) 1 activities. There was a Go/No Go decision point after BP1 that was passed so this NEPA review is for the remaining project activities in BP2 and BP3.
