Hydrogen Transmission and Distribution Workshop Report: Public
Comment
AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Department of
Energy (DOE).
ACTION: Notice of posting for public comment, a Request for Information
(RFI) on Hydrogen Transmission and Distribution Workshop Report.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Energy Efficiency
and Renewable Energy (EERE) invites public comment on its Request for
Information (RFI) number DE-FOA-0001187 regarding feedback on the
summary
[[Page 63110]]
report for the Hydrogen Transmission and Distribution Workshop held at
the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in February, 2014. The RFI
document is posted at https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/.
The purpose of this RFI is to solicit feedback from industry,
academia, research laboratories, government agencies, and other
stakeholders on issues related to hydrogen transmission and
distribution pathways, specifically with respect to the Hydrogen
Transmission and Distribution Workshop Report. EERE is interested both
in information on the current status of transmission and distribution
pathways, technologies and their potential to meet DOE cost goals as
well as feedback on the content of the report, including the key R&D
needs as determined by the participants. EERE is also interested in the
community's opinion of the metrics and protocols for the given pathways
that would most effectively aid in the determination of a technology's
potential to deliver low cost hydrogen that meets DOE goals.
This is solely a Request for Information and not a Funding
Opportunity Announcement (FOA). EERE is not accepting applications at
this time.
DATES: Responses to the RFI must be received on or before October 30th,
2014 at 5:00 p.m. ET. (DATES caption contains information as how long a
comment period will be, or when any hearings will be held, etc. When
calculation dates, you can insert an instruction for the Federal
Register office to tie the date to the date of publication.)
ADDRESSES: The complete RFI document is located at https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION: Responses to the RFI and questions should be
sent via email or email attachment to [email protected]. Further
instruction can be found in the RFI document posted on EERE Exchange.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The RFI is not a Funding Opportunity
Announcement (FOA); therefore, EERE is not accepting applications at
this time. EERE may issue a FOA in the future based on or related to
the content and responses to the RFI; however, EERE may also elect not
to issue a FOA. There is no guarantee that a FOA will be issued as a
result of the RFI. Responding to the RFI does not provide any advantage
or disadvantage to potential applicants if EERE chooses to issue a FOA
regarding the subject matter. Final details, including the anticipated
award size, quantity, and timing of EERE funded awards, will be subject
to Congressional appropriations and direction.
Any information obtained as a result of the RFI is intended to be
used by the Government on a non-attribution basis for planning and
strategy development; the RFI does not constitute a formal solicitation
for proposals or abstracts. Responses to the RFI will be treated as
information only. EERE will review and consider all responses in its
formulation of program strategies for the identified materials of
interest that are the subject of this request. EERE will not provide
reimbursement for costs incurred in responding to the RFI. Respondents
are advised that EERE is under no obligation to acknowledge receipt of
the information received or provide feedback to respondents with
respect to any information submitted under the RFI. Responses to the
RFI do not bind EERE to any further actions related to this topic.
