## What the grant funds

This is a Request for Information issued by the U.S. Department of Energy on behalf of the Manufacturing & Energy Supply Chains Office in collaboration with the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Office. This RFI seeks public input to help inform DOE’s implementation of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, also commonly known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. The Information collected may be used to inform DOE planning related to the following BIL Sections. Section 40207(e), titled Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling Prize. Section 40207(f) titled, Battery and Critical Mineral Recycling: Battery Recycling Research, Development, and Demonstration Grants.
