The full ASPECT NOFO (DE-FOA-0003647) posted September 4, 2026, eleven days later than the Notice of Intent predicted. The real document splits $58 million across two topic areas with anticipated award counts of 0-7 and 0-3, a cost share that jumps from 20 percent to 50 percent mid-project, a mandatory five-page concept paper due October 9, and a university eligibility restriction that decides team structure before anyone writes a word.
Read articleOn August 20, 2026 the Energy Department named seven selections across the Battery Materials Processing and Battery Manufacturing and Recycling programs. Three of the seven are recycling or reprocessing. Two awards hit the $100 million ceiling. The round is 83% smaller than Round 2, and the composition tells you exactly what DOE will fund next.
Read articleThe Alternative Fuels and Feedstocks Office issued a Notice of Intent on July 14 for ASPECT — up to $58 million in cooperative agreements for producing chemicals from alternative and waste feedstocks, with the full NOFO expected August 24, 2026.
