The Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (DOE/EERE) is offering this Request for Information (RFI) to gather public feedback. This RFI is for the purpose of informing DOE’s implementation of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law concerning challenges and opportunities at the interface of wind energy and radar technology. Input is sought on wind turbine siting challenges related to radar interference, existing or developing mitigation technologies, obstacles to commercializing and adopting these measures, and insights on specific BIL provisions. This RFI is not a funding opportunity; EERE is not accepting applications for financial assistance, and no projects will be directly supported. This initiative aims to shape potential future funding opportunities. Responses are due by January 12, 2024.

| Description: | The purpose of this RFI is to solicit public feedback to help inform DOE’s implementation of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, also commonly known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL). To help inform DOE’s implementation of BIL funds under the provision referenced above, this RFI seeks input on: 1) Siting challenges of wind energy developers related to radar interference, 2) Potential mitigation technologies at the radar and/or turbine level that currently exist or are in development to address wind turbine-radar interference, 3) Commercialization and market adoption of wind-radar interference mitigation measures, and what obstacles need to be overcome to accelerate commercialization and maximize adoption and 4) BIL Provisions and Requirements and Buy America Requirements. This is solely a request for information and not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). EERE is not accepting applications.
This is an RFI only. DOE will not pay for information provided under this RFI and no project will be supported as a result of this RFI. This RFI is not accepting applications for financial assistance or financial incentives. DOE may or may not issue a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) based on consideration of the input received from this RFI. Responses to this RFI must be submitted electronically to WindEnergyRFI@ee.doe.gov no later than 5:00pm (ET) on Friday, January 12, 2024. Responses must be provided as attachments to an email.
