Description
The
U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable
Energy’s (EERE) Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO) seeks to conduct research
and development activities to further the utilization of cost-effective, highly
efficient combined heat and power (CHP) via Funding Opportunity Announcement
(FOA) DE-FOA-0001750. The FOA includes two areas of interest to research
enabling technologies for CHP systems that are specifically designed to provide
cost‐effective
support to the electric grid:
·
Area
of Interest 1 – Power Electronics and Control Systems - The
objective of this Area of Interest is to research, develop, and test CHP
components such as power electronics and control systems, needed to enable the
cost‐effective
use of new and existing CHP systems to provide support to the
grid.
·
Area
of Interest 2 – Electricity Generation Components - The
objective of this Area of Interest is to research and develop the electricity
generation component of a 1‐20 MWe CHP system.
