Notice of Intent to Issue NOFO DE-FOA-0003649: Leveraging Domestic Infrastructure and Resources to Unleash Alternative Chemicals, Fuels and Feedstocks

The Department of Energy, through the Golden Field Office, intends to issue a Notice of Funding Opportunity titled Leveraging Domestic Infrastructure and Resources to Unleash Alternative Chemicals, Fuels, and Feedstocks. This initiative aims to support the vision of the Advanced Fuel and Feedstocks Office by funding innovative technologies that utilize existing domestic biomass and pipeline resources to expand energy production and distribution. Key focus areas include the creation of stable liquid intermediate products from biomass, the production of market-priced commodity chemicals and fuels using existing refinery assets, and the development of pilot sites for blended hydrogen-natural gas to test reliability and scalability within gas distribution networks. This current notice serves as an informational Notice of Intent and is not a request for applications or comments. While the solicitation is associated with number DE-FOA-0003648 and lists a response deadline of April 26, 2027, the agency cautions that a formal funding opportunity may differ from this description or may not be issued. Interested parties are encouraged to monitor the DOE Funding Opportunities website for official updates and the eventual release of the formal NOFO.

Inspiring Generations of New Innovators to Impact Technologies in Energy 2026 (IGNIITE 2026)

The INSPIRING GENERATIONS OF NEW INNOVATORS TO IMPACT TECHNOLOGIES IN ENERGY 2026 (IGNIITE 2026) program is a funding opportunity issued by the Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) under solicitation number DE-FOA-0003624, aimed at supporting early-career researchers focused on transformative energy technology innovations. This program encourages the submission of high-risk, high-reward research projects that have the potential to create entirely new learning curves in energy technology, thereby offering disruptive solutions capable of significantly impacting the energy sector. Eligible applicants must be early-career innovators, and selected awardees will not only receive funding but also engage in mentorship, collaborative events, and interactions with investors and government stakeholders to facilitate the translation of cutting-edge ideas into impactful technologies. The program emphasizes applied research and experimental development projects, especially those that demonstrate proof-of-concept or exploratory efforts in energy technology areas not currently supported by ARPA-E. The broad technical scope invites ideas with the potential to substantially contribute to ARPA-E’s goals, including improving energy security, reducing emissions, increasing efficiency, managing nuclear waste, and enhancing infrastructure resilience. Applications must be submitted exclusively through the ARPA-E eXCHANGE platform by May 29, 2026, and comply with federal regulations governing cooperative agreements and grants. This initiative reflects ARPA-E’s mission to maintain U.S. technological leadership by funding breakthrough research that addresses critical energy challenges and fosters the development of disruptive technologies poised to reshape the energy marketplace.

High-performance Optimized Recycled Nuclear Isotopes for Gen IV reactors (HORNIG)

The HORNIG program, under the ARPA-E Funding Opportunity Announcement DE-FOA-0003623, aims to advance the development of transuranic fuels from domestic fissile resources to strengthen U.S. nuclear energy security, reduce radioactive waste volumes, and diminish reliance on foreign fuel sources. This initiative supports coordinated research and development across fuel design, fabrication, testing, modeling, and qualification, with a focus on techno-economic analysis and deployment pathways to enable economic viability of advanced fuels for Generation IV reactors. Proposals must demonstrate transformative technology with high technical merit, clear performance targets, and robust risk mitigation strategies, evaluated primarily on impact (35%), scientific and technical merit (35%), management plan soundness (20%), and team qualifications (10%). Award decisions are based on a trade-off process favoring overall value over cost, with no use of lowest price technically acceptable evaluation. All work must occur within the United States, subject to Buy America provisions, and applicants must fully disclose foreign connections, affiliations with malign talent programs, and any use of generative AI in application preparation. Required documentation includes a detailed technical volume, SF-424 and SF-424A forms, biosketches, business assurances, and transparency disclosures, all submitted electronically via the ARPA-E eXCHANGE portal by the May 28, 2026 deadline. Successful recipients must maintain data archives for long-term usability, comply with research security training, enforce confidentiality agreements, and adhere to strict marking protocols for proprietary information, including labeling every confidential page with a specific disclaimer. Applicants must be registered in SAM.gov and possess a Unique Entity Identifier; small businesses may qualify under SBA size standards, though no other socioeconomic set-asides are specified. The anticipated project period runs from December 2026 to December 2029, with potential for renewal based on performance and funding availability.
