About this archived opportunity

The purpose of this solicitation is to fund Renewable Energy and Advanced Generation projects that meet the following initiatives: · Developing and Demonstrating Hydrogen-based Power Generation Systems, from the 2021-2022 Gas Research & Development Budget Plan; and · Mitigate Criteria Air Pollutants in Hydrogen-Based Power Generation, from the pending 2022-2023 Gas Research & Development Budget Plan. This solicitation will fund the development and demonstration of emission-mitigating technologies and gas-fired power generation technologies that can run efficiently on high blends of hydrogen (H2) in the fuel stream while mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions. Research resulting from this solicitation will support increasingly higher blends of H2 up to 100 percent, without compromising generation efficiencies and performance, to support meeting California’s goals for carbon neutrality and improving public health and safety.
