OpportunityTitle: Request for Information (RFI) DE-FOA-00002466: Plastics Innovation Challenge (PIC) Draft Roadmap
Description: The purpose of this RFI is to solicit feedback from interested individuals and entities, such as industry, academia, research laboratories, government agencies, and other stakeholders on the Plastics Innovation Challenge (PIC) Draft Roadmap. This will help to to ensure the Plastics PIC is optimally positioned to address opportunities and challenges for the development and deployment of technologies for plastic waste management and reduction. This is solely a request for information. The PIC Draft Roadmap serves as a unifying document, providing structure and aligning activities across the offices of the Department involved in this effort. The PIC considers approaches to plastic waste management from fundamental science all the way to technology development and field validation. By providing alignment within the Department, a framework to provide appropriate focus on select strategies to manage plastic waste, and objectives at every level of technical maturity, this roadmap will guide the Department in its efforts to meet the PIC 2030 goals. This RFI is intended to seek input on the PIC Draft Roadmap and DOE research plans related to the PIC from a broad array of stakeholders across the plastics landscape and the public. Interested parties are directed to visit the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy&#8217;s Funding Opportunity Exchange, https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/, for the full Funding Opportunity Announcement DE-FOA-0002466. Responses to this RFI must be submitted electronically to PICDraftRoadmapRFI@ee.doe.gov no later than 5:00 p.m. (EDT) on March 1, 2021.
