THE STEWARDSHIP SCIENCE ACADEMIC ALLIANCES (SSAA) PROGRAM WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2002 TO SUPPORT STATE-OF-THE-ART RESEARCH AT U.S. ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS IN AREAS OF FUNDAMENTAL PHYSICAL SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF RELEVANCE TO THE SSP MISSION. THE SSAA PROGRAM PROVIDES THE RESEARCH EXPERIENCE NECESSARY TO MAINTAIN A CADRE OF TRAINED SCIENTISTS AT U.S. UNIVERSITIES TO MEET THE NATION’S CURRENT AND FUTURE SSP NEEDS, WITH A FOCUS ON THOSE AREAS NOT SUPPORTED BY OTHER FEDERAL AGENCIES. IT SUPPORTS THE DOE/NNSA’S PRIORITIES BOTH TO ADDRESS THE WORKFORCE SPECIFIC NEEDS IN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS AND TO SUPPORT THE NEXT GENERATION OF PROFESSIONALS WHO WILL MEET THOSE NEEDS.ONLY APPLICATIONS FOR COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS AWARDS WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR THIS SOLICITATION, NO GRANT APPLICATIONS WILL BE CONSIDERED.
THE SPECIFIC AREAS OF INTEREST ARE:
1. ADVANCED CHARACTERIZATION OF MATERIALS PROPERTIES UNDER EXTREME CONDITIONS
2. LOW ENERGY NUCLEAR SCIENCE
3. RADIOCHEMISTRY

THIS PROJECT WILL DEVELOP AND VALIDATE A FLEXIBLE COMBINED HEAT AND POWER (CHP) SYSTEM CAPABLE OF BEING FUELED FROM A RANGE OF LOW-CARBON FUELS, INCLUDING 100% HYDROGEN, HYDROGEN-PIPELINE-NATURAL-GAS BLENDS, AND BIOGAS. THIS UNIQUE 100-KW SYSTEM IS COMPRISED OF INTERMEDIATE-TEMPERATURE SOLID-OXIDE FUEL CELLS INTEGRATED WITH A HIGH-EFFICIENCY STATIONARY ENGINE AND BALANCE-OF-PLANT (BOP) EQUIPMENT. THE PROPOSED PROJECT BENEFITS GREATLY FROM HARDWARE AND TEST-FACILITY DEVELOPMENT COMPLETED UNDER THE ARPA-E INTEGRATE PROGRAM TO ACCELERATE AND RISK-REDUCE OUR INTEGRATED-SYSTEM EFFORT.$4,500,000

MITIGATING HYDROGEN LOSSES THROUGHOUT ALL STAGES OF TRANSFER OPERATIONS IS CRITICAL TO ENABLING LIQUID HYDROGEN (LH2) AS A HIGH USE AND HIGH-CAPACITY ENERGY STORAGE RESERVOIR, BOTH IN TERMS OF COST AND IN LIMITING THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF HYDROGEN AS AN INDIRECT GREENHOUSE GAS. POINTS THROUGHOUT THE LH2 TRANSFER PATHWAY WHERE LOSSES OCCUR ARE WELL KNOWN AND INCLUDE COOLDOWN OF LINES, FLASHING OF LIQUID HYDROGEN INTO LOW-PRESSURE DEWARS, COOLING OF DEWAR WALLS, TRANSFER FROM A MANUFACTURE SITE TO SUPPLY TRAILER, TRANSFER FROM TRAILER TO THE ON-SITE STORAGE TANK, ON-SITE TANK TO TANK TRANSFERS, TRANSFER FROM STORAGE TANK TO END APPLICATION, AND INTENTIONAL VENTING EVENTS (E.G. TO RELIEVE PRESSURE AFTER TRANSFERS OR AT THE END APPLICATION). DEMONSTRATED SOLUTIONS TO MITIGATE LOSSES AT SCALE ARE CURRENTLY LACKING WITH MOST BOIL-OFF HYDROGEN BEING VENTED TO THE ATMOSPHERE OR FLARED. THIS PROJECT’S OBJECTIVE IS TO DESIGN, ENGINEER AND CONSTRUCT A CRITICALLY NEEDED, MATERIALS-BASED SOLUTION FOR THE CAPTURE OF H2 FROM LOSS EVENTS. THIS DESIGN WILL INCLUDE A SUBSEQUENT H2 RELEASE TO A RE-LIQUEFICATION UNIT OR DIRECT USE IN POWER GENERATION (E.G. FUEL CELL), WHEREBY NET ENERGY LOSS IS MITIGATED.$3,206,194

THE OVERARCHING PROJECT OBJECTIVES ARE TO:
•ADVANCE THE TRL OF P-SOECS FROM 3 TO 5, CONSIDERING NEW MATERIALS (ELECTROLYTE AND STEAM ELECTRODE) AND CELL ARCHITECTURES,
•DEMONSTRATE THE ADVANTAGES OF P-SOECS COMPARED TO OTHER ELECTROLYSIS APPROACHES,
•DEVELOP SCALABLE DESIGNS TO ENABLE ECONOMICALLY VIABLE TECHNOLOGY DEPLOYMENT,
•ASSESS THE IMPLICATIONS OF TECHNOLOGY DEPLOYMENT FROM A SOCIETAL PERSPECTIVE.$3,011,242

GREEN HYDROGEN LABORATORY EQUIPMENT
THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT IS TO CREATE A FACILITY TO ENABLE WORLD-CLASS RESEARCH IN HYDROGEN PRODUCTION AND THE EMISSION-FREE COMBUSTION OF GREEN HYDROGEN AND HYDROGEN-CONTAINING FUELS SUCH AS AMMONIA. HYDROGEN-BASED COMBUSTION WILL BECOME AN IMPORTANT TECHNOLOGY IN INDUSTRIES THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO DE-CARBONIZE OR ELECTRIFY.$3,000,000
· FY2025 · Department of Energy
THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO ENABLE AND PERFORM WORLD-CLASS RESEARCH IN LOW-CARBON ELECTROCHEMICAL POWER PRODUCTION AND HYDROGEN GENERATION. FLEXIBLE FUEL CELL POWER GENERATION, HYDROGEN PRODUCING ELECTROLYZERS, AND CRITICAL INSTRUMENTATION, SUCH AS HYDROGEN SENSORS, WILL BE CRUCIAL TECHNOLOGIES IN HARD-TO-DECARBONIZE INDUSTRIES. THE PROJECT WILL ENABLE RENEWABLE ENERGY FIRMING IN EITHER GRID-ENERGY STORAGE, FLEXIBLE, HIGH-EFFICIENCY, DISPATCHABLE GRID-SERVICES GENERATION, OR MARINE-BASED TRANSPORTATION APPLICATIONS. THE WORK APPROACH WILL BE TO COUPLE NOVEL R&D ACTIVITIES WITH UNIQUE, STATE-OF-THE-ART TEST SYSTEMS AND ANALYSIS EQUIPMENT TO ENABLE ADVANCEMENTS IN ELECTROCHEMICAL DEVICES, CHARACTERIZATION, LIFETIME IMPROVEMENT, AND MODELING & CONTROL OF INTEGRATED DISTRIBUTED ENERGY SYSTEMS. THIS R&D EFFORT WILL BE CARRIED OUT THROUGH THE DESIGN AND BUILD OF TEST RIGS, FABRICATION STATION, AND MICROGRID, THE INTEGRATION OF ADVANCED DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT, AND THE EXECUTION OF RESEARCH ACTIVITIES THROUGH BOTH THE COMMISSIONING AND PRELIMINARY RESEARCH EFFORTS OF THE NEW EXPERIMENTAL TEST SYSTEMS. THE PROPOSED R&D EFFORT FOCUSES ON SUPPORTING FUNDAMENTAL AND APPLIED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES (I.E., TRL 3-6), AND ENABLING EDUCATION AND TRAINING OF BOTH GRADUATE AND UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS IN EMERGING ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES.$3,000,000
