Description
SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) pursuant to the DOE Financial Assistance Rules, 10 CFR 600.8 is announcing its intent to issue a Supplemental Announcement (08) to the Fiscal Year 2001 Broad Based Solicitation for Submission of Financial Assistance Applications Involving Research, Development and Demonstration, DE-PS36-01GO90000. Under this Supplemental Announcement 08, DOE is seeking applications from geothermal power plant operators for plant-wide assessments that will lead to substantial improvements in energy output, conversion efficiency, parasitic power reduction, and long-term sustainability. The goal in supporting such plant assessments is to develop case studies which illustrate the benefits of adopting a plant-wide, systems approach strategy across an entire production facility. Geothermal Power plants that take a comprehensive, plant-wide, systems approach to increasing energy conversion efficiency, production capacity, and improving its sustainability are of interest. Specifically, proposals are sought where teams are considering the adoption of best available and emerging technologies using a variety of tools, information, process engineering techniques, and support systems. We anticipate that the plant would conduct the assessment by initially profiling the entire plant's energy requirements and energy-intensive processes. This would be conducted in the form of an energy audit using state-of-the-art process modeling tools. Further assessment would then focus on specific components or systems that would offer the largest cost savings and return on investment. Assessment methodologies and strategies that aim to discover opportunities where the plant's investment in energy conversion efficiency and capacity are maximized will be of most interest. All information regarding the Supplemental Announcement will be posted on the DOE Golden Field Office Home Page at http://www.golden.doe.gov/businessopportunities.html under "Solicitations."
