Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0001719
The Department of Energy (DOE), through the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), issued a discretionary funding opportunity (DE-FOA-0001719) titled "Small Scale Modularization of Gasification Technology Components for Radically Engineered Modular Systems." The grant sits under the Clean Coal Program and its Advanced Energy Systems (AES) portfolio, which is aimed at pushing coal-based power generation toward higher efficiency, better performance, and stronger availability while still meeting high environmental standards. In practical terms, the opportunity is about taking newer or emerging gasification-related technologies and figuring out how to design them so they can be built, deployed, and operated effectively at a smaller, modular scale rather than only as large, custom, site-built systems.
A central theme of the announcement is the Radically Engineered Modular Systems (REMS) concept. REMS emphasizes rethinking how complex energy systems are engineered by breaking them into modules that can be standardized, manufactured more like industrial products, and then integrated on site. For gasification, this means applicants are expected to focus on technology components, subsystems, or approaches that can be "reduced to practice" in a small-scale modular format. The underlying goal is to enable systems that can be deployed more flexibly, potentially with improved reliability and maintainability, and with pathways to lower cost and shorter schedules compared to traditional one-off construction. The work is framed as supporting program goals tied to cleaner and more efficient use of domestic fossil resources, while remaining environmentally responsible and contributing to energy security.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which usually implies substantial federal involvement during the project, such as technical direction, milestone reviews, and active collaboration with DOE/NETL. The total size of individual awards could be up to $6,000,000, and the agency anticipated making around seven awards under this FOA. The activity category is research and development in energy, science, and technology, and it is associated with CFDA number 81.089. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning a wide range of organizations could apply (for example, companies, universities, national labs, nonprofits, and other entities), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that would have been included in the full FOA text.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted with a creation date of June 7, 2017, and had an original application deadline of August 8, 2017. Overall, the announcement is best understood as DOE seeking R&D projects that can modernize and modularize gasification technology components so they fit into a REMS-style, small-scale architecture, ultimately improving the efficiency, availability, and environmental performance of coal-related energy systems through more manufacturable and deployable designs.Apply for DE FOA 0001719
