4. Decarbonizing Cement and Concrete: D. Apai

UArizona may submit only one Concept Paper and one Full Application for each topic area as the lead applicant.  There are no limitations on partnerships or subrecipients on other applications.

This FOA will fund high-impact, applied research and development and prototype or pilot-scale technology validation and demonstration projects in order to expedite the adoption of transformational industrial technology necessary to increase energy efficiency across industry and in high GHG-emitting industrial subsectors, reducing both energy usage and GHG emissions. This includes cross-sector industrial decarbonization approaches via opportunities in energy efficiency; industrial electrification; low carbon fuels, feedstocks and energy sources; and industrial carbon capture and utilization. This FOA and its associated projects are separate from any forthcoming efforts to be funded under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, including activities related to Industrial Emissions Demonstration Projects.

The purpose of this FOA is to create a new Clean Energy Manufacturing Innovation Institute that will accelerate decarbonization of the industrial sector by developing and scaling electrified industrial heating processes. A consortium made up of industry, academia, non-governmental organizations, national labs, and other stakeholders is sought to: develop electrified process heating solutions for industry; create modeling and optimization tools to facilitate integration of electrified processes into manufacturing plants; develop technology evaluation tools and methodologies; and educate and develop the manufacturing workforce needed to implement this technology.
