Notices of Intent: Funding for Advanced Vehicle Technologies
Today, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Vehicle Technologies Office announced two notices of intent for fiscal year 2024 funding to advance research, development, demonstration, and deployment (RDD&D) and technology integration (TI) for areas critical to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, including:
- Developing new chemistries for reduced cost, higher energy density electric vehicle (EV) batteries;
- RDD&D to provide widescale, cybersecure EVs and EV charging infrastructure;
- Low-greenhouse gas emission concepts for off-road vehicles;
- Manufacturing high-performance electric steels using domestic resources;
- Improving the mobility system through vehicle-to-everything approaches;
- Zero-emission vehicle and infrastructure training for first responders and emergency response professionals;
- Enabling Clean Cities coalitions to undertake high-impact outreach, engagement, and technical assistance activities.
The activities to be funded under these potential funding opportunity announcements (FOAs) will support the government-wide approach to the climate crisis by driving the innovation that can lead to the deployment of clean energy technologies, which are critical for climate protection.
As part of a whole-of-government approach to advancing equity, the prospective funding will encourage the participation of underserved communities and underrepresented groups. Applicants are encouraged to include individuals from groups historically underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) on their project teams.
