DOE Announces a Notice of Intent for the SuperTruck Charge Funding Opportunity
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced a notice of intent to fund projects that would provide innovative research, development, and demonstration (RD&D) of concepts for delivering charging solutions for trucks. The opportunity also supports approaches for load management and delivery of grid services that alleviate grid capacity challenges at charging installations for medium- and heavy-duty electric vehicles. The SuperTruck Charge program will focus on demonstrating technologies to accelerate the widespread buildout of the charging infrastructure necessary for battery electric medium- and heavy-duty trucks.
Area of Interest: Grid-integration of Depot/Hub and Corridor Charging Solutions for Medium- and Heavy-Duty EVs
This area of interest will seek innovative RD&D concepts for medium- and heavy-duty electric vehicles through optimal design of charging infrastructure and operations.
VTO anticipates sub-topics focusing on:
- Truck depots concentrated near ports, warehouses, and other logistics operations, and
- Truck stops/travel centers along key freight corridors.
This is a Notice of Intent (NOI) only. DOE may issue the described funding opportunity announcement (FOA), may issue a FOA that is significantly different than the described FOA, or DOE may not issue a FOA at all.
