The Department of Energy (DOE) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to gather crucial feedback from the research community and relevant stakeholders. This RFI is a preparatory step towards a planned Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) rather than a direct grant offering. This grant-related initiative is for the purpose of assisting in the development of new manufacturing research activities. The primary objective is to significantly reduce the costs associated with, and improve the quality and reliability of, high-temperature (160-800°C) Combined Heat and Power (CHP) fuel cells for stationary power applications. Specific fuel cell types of interest include, but are not limited to, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC), Polybenzimidazole (PBI) Fuel Cells, Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cells (PAFC), and Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells (MCFC). The DOE seeks to refine future funding priorities based on this input.
