The DC-GRIDS program supports the small-scale research and development of more compact and cost-effective power electronics converters for direct current (DC) transmission to transport electricity over longer distances with less electricity lost.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding Tandem PV, Inc. to engineer ultraviolet light hardness into critical layers of solar photovoltaic (PV) devices and increase durability under high temperatures.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to E2H2NANO, LLC (Buffalo, NY) to scale up and prototype efficient ammonia production at moderate temperatures and pressures.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Infinite Elements, Inc. (IE) to design, fabricate, and operate a pilot-scale biohydrometallurgical processing system for recovery of critical minerals and materials (CMMs) from electronic waste (e-waste) and manufacturing scrap, i.e., a biological leaching operation to separate out metals from e-waste.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to The Rapid Advancement in Process Intensification Deployment Manufacturing Institute (RAPID) to coordinate, organize, and support activities related to education and workforce development and future technological development projects, however, the current effort is limited to project and portfolio management for the technological development program.
This Amended Determination addresses the small-scale research and development activities of an optically powered ultra-high-speed (OPUS) wound-field synchronous generator (WFSG) for use in uncrewed aircraft.
This Amended Determination addresses the small-scale research and development activities of a process to recycle critical minerals from e-waste, spent catalytic converters, and other waste sources by leveraging ChemFinity’s porous sorbent material technology.
INL will design, fabricate, and irradiate a second fueled pebble experiment, XPeRT-2 (X-energy Pebble Reactor Test 2), in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR).
This project, led by Clean Core Thorium Energy (CCTE) in partnership with Idaho National Laboratory (INL), aims to develop and test a novel nuclear fuel named Advanced Nuclear Energy for Enriched Life (ANEEL).
This Second Amended Determination addresses the approval of additional funding, extended period of performance, a new teaming partner, and new project milestones to support next phase pilot development of the SCALED system.
