Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0001217
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Department of Energy (DOE) are preparing to release a Request for Applications (RFA) for the Fiscal Year 15 Biomass Research and Development Initiative (BRDI). This initiative, authorized under the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008, focuses on three main technical areas for funded projects:
1. **Feedstocks Development**: This area emphasizes research and development related to the logistics of feedstock production, such as harvesting, handling, and storage. Projects should aim to enhance existing feedstock availability for biofuels and biobased products, prioritizing short-term impacts, including potential breeding or genetic improvement insights.
2. **Biofuels and Biobased Products Development**: This area targets the development of cost-effective technologies for converting cellulosic biomass into biofuels and other biobased products, including chemicals and animal feeds. The goal is to diversify production and increase the viability of biorefineries.
3. **Biofuels Development Analysis**: This area focuses on applying systems evaluation methods to assess system performance, market potential, and sustainability. Successful projects will analyze lifecycle impacts—environmental, social, and economic—while using data to refine processes over the project's duration.
This Notice is meant to inform potential applicants about the upcoming RFA, which will be available on Grants.gov in November 2014. No applications are being accepted at this time, but interested parties are encouraged to start forming partnerships and developing proposals in anticipation of the RFA.Apply for DE FOA 0001217
