What the grant funds

This is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization Office (IEDO). The intent of this RFI is to obtain information to inform a new DOE vision study, Pathways for U.S. Industrial Transformations: Unlocking American Innovation, which is identifying cost-effective and industry-specific strategic pathways to achieve a thriving U.S. industrial sector with net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050. This RFI seeks input on four categories: Category 1: Industrial Decarbonization Challenges, Barriers, and Cross-Cutting Strategies; Category 2: Framework for Industrial Decarbonization Pathways; Category 3: Impacts and Evaluation Criteria for Industrial Decarbonization Pathways; and Category 4: Net-zero Decarbonization Pathways for Specific Industrial Subsectors. This RFI is focused on input on industrial technological, financial, social, environmental, and health aspects as they pertains to the challenges, barriers, opportunities, and pathways to achieve net-zero emissions from the industrial sector by 2050. IEDO seeks input from a diverse group of stakeholders (both within and outside of industry) who will be integral to the transformation of U.S. industry, including associated communities, utilities, low-carbon fuels suppliers, technology developers, engineering consultants, firms designing new facilities, local and regional governments, and more. Responses should be submitted electronically to Transforming-Industry@ee.doe.gov. Include “Transforming Industry RFI” in the subject line of the email. Only electronic responses will be accepted and must be received by 5:00pm (ET) on June 10, 2024. MOD0001 Only electronic responses will be accepted and must be received by 5:00pm (ET) on June 24, 2024. This is solely a request for information and not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA).
