Electrolytic Hydrogen Production 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 Electrolytic Hydrogen Production 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-0001188 regarding feedback on the
summary report for the Electrolytic Hydrogen Production 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 electrolytic hydrogen production
pathways, specifically with respect to the Electrolytic Hydrogen
Production Workshop Report. EERE is interested both in information on
the current status of electrolytic hydrogen production 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 electrolysis technologies that have the most
potential to produce 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.
ADDRESSES: The complete RFI document is located at https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Responses to the RFI and questions
should be sent via email or email attachment to [email protected].
Further instructions 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.
