Categorical Exclusion (CX) Determinations By Date

The United States Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to Noria Energy Holdings, LLC (Noria), to design, develop, and test a floating solar photovoltaics (FPV) tracking and positioning system that increases annual energy production of FPV, lowers levelized cost of energy for FPV, and leverages U.S. contract supply chain and manufacturing.
This Amended Determination follows the approval of additional funding, extended period of performance, new teaming partners, and new project milestones to support the project team's small-scale research and development activities of new biological photosynthetic systems that employ sunlight from previously under-utilized or inaccessible regions of the solar spectrum, such as near-infrared light (NIR), to produce chemical biofuel.
