Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0002232
The Department of Energy (DOE), through the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), released a Request for Information (RFI) titled "Reactive Capture of Carbon Dioxide" (Funding Opportunity Number DE FOA 0002232). This notice is not a funding announcement and is strictly meant to gather input from stakeholders. DOE is using the RFI to better understand whether "reactive capture" of CO2 presents challenges that differ from those encountered in the carbon capture and carbon utilization or conversion efforts DOE already funds, and to clarify which technologies and approaches should actually be considered part of "reactive capture." Because it is only an information-gathering effort, DOE explicitly states that no applications will be accepted under this notice, and there are no anticipated awards associated with it.
In practical terms, the RFI is aimed at collecting technical and programmatic feedback on how reactive capture should be defined and evaluated. DOE is looking for insight into any distinct barriers, performance issues, integration hurdles, cost drivers, scaling challenges, or operational constraints that might make reactive capture meaningfully different from conventional capture approaches (such as solvent-based absorption, solid sorbents, membranes, and other capture systems) and from downstream CO2 utilization and conversion pathways. DOE is also trying to identify the range of technologies that fit under the label "reactive capture," which generally implies capture processes where CO2 is not only separated but is also chemically transformed or bound in a way that is integral to the capture step, potentially linking capture directly with conversion or stabilization.
Eligibility to respond is essentially open and unrestricted, meaning any type of entity can provide feedback (for example, companies, universities, national laboratories, nonprofits, trade associations, and individuals), subject to any clarifications that might appear in the full text. Even though the source fields list a "Cooperative Agreement" as the funding instrument type and show an award ceiling and expected awards fields, those are standard data elements that appear in many federal opportunity records and do not change the central point of this notice: DOE is not accepting applications and is not making awards through this RFI.
The RFI was created on November 26, 2019, and the original deadline for responses was January 7, 2020. DOE requested that responses be submitted electronically as a PDF attachment via email to Sheldon.Funk@netl.doe.gov. The activity category is energy, and the associated CFDA listing is 81.089, which is commonly used for DOE energy-related financial assistance programs, though again this particular posting is for information collection rather than an active award competition.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a market and technical sounding exercise: DOE is trying to map the landscape of reactive CO2 capture, surface any unique technical risks or development needs, and understand what technologies stakeholders believe truly qualify as reactive capture, so the agency can make better-informed decisions about future research directions, program design, or potential funding topics in later solicitations.Apply for DE FOA 0002232
