OpportunityTitle: Notice of Intent to issue a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) entitled &quot;Onsite Energy Technical Assistance Partnerships&quot;
Description: The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) intends to issue, on behalf of the Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization Office (IEDO), a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) entitled &#8220;Onsite Energy Technical Assistance Partnerships.&#8221; EERE&#8217;s IEDO accelerates the innovation and adoption of cost-effective technologies that eliminate industrial greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. IEDO provides planning, management, and direction necessary for a balanced national program of research, development, demonstration, technical assistance, and workforce development to drive energy, materials and production efficiency, and decarbonization across the industrial sector. Onsite clean energy technologies will play a critical role in advancing the Biden Administration&#8217;s goals to achieve carbon pollution-free electricity by 2035 and to &#8220;deliver an equitable, clean energy future, and put the United States on a path to achieve net-zero emissions, economy-wide, by no later than 2050. At the same time, industrial sector stakeholders are increasingly seeking technical assistance to identify and deploy onsite technology solutions that can help reach portfolio-wide GHG targets, replace onsite fossil-fueled equipment, and balance resilience requirements. This FOA supports technical assistance for deployment of onsite clean energy technologies, including but not limited to solar photovoltaics, solar thermal, wind power, renewable fuels, geothermal, battery storage, thermal storage, industrial heat pumps, combined heat and power (CHP), district energy, and others. THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT (NOI) ONLY. This Notice is issued so that interested parties are aware of the EERE&#8217;s intention to issue this FOA in the near term. All of the information contained in this Notice is subject to change. EERE may issue a FOA as described herein, may issue a FOA that is significantly different from the FOA described herein, or EERE may not issue a FOA at all. EERE will not respond to questions concerning this Notice. Once the FOA has been released, EERE will provide an avenue for potential Applicants to submit questions. Prospective applicants to the FOA should begin developing partnerships, formulating ideas, and gathering data in anticipation of the issuance of this FOA. EERE is compiling a &#8220;Teaming Partner List&#8221; to facilitate the formation of new project teams for this FOA. The Teaming Partner List allows organizations who may wish to participate on an application to express their interest to other applicants and to explore potential partnerships.
