The Office of Fuels Development of the Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) is supporting the issuance of this Supplemental Announcement to EERE's Broad Based Solicitation for Submission of Financial Assistance Applications Involving Research, Development and Demonstration, DE-PS36-99GO10383, dated November 9, 1998. Under the Supplemental Announcement, DOE is soliciting applications to support innovative technologies that will increase the efficiency or lower the cost of producing and converting biomass to transportation fuels. The Office of Fuels Development formulates, executes, and coordinates a balanced and customer-focused national program of research, development, and demonstration of technologies for the production of transportation fuels from biomass. The biomass resources considered include agricultural residues, forestry wastes, and crops grown specifically for energy applications. Proposals are sought in areas of innovative research and development of the following: plants capable of high biomass yields; systems for culture, harvests, and handling of these high yielding plants; enzymes and fermentation organisms for the production of ethanol from biomass; approaches for converting cellulosic biomass to ethanol. Awards under this Supplemental Announcement will be Cooperative Agreements with a term of up to 12 months. Subject to funding availability, it is anticipated the total DOE funding available under this Supplemental Announcement will be $600,000, with individual awards not to exceed $150,000 of DOE funding. A minimum Cost Share of 20% of the total project cost is required under this Supplemental Announcement. All information regarding the Supplemental Announcement will be posted on the DOE Golden Field Office Home Page at http://www.eren.doe.gov/golden/solicit.htm.
