Carbon Negative Shot Initiative is sponsored by U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management. The Carbon Negative Shot is a DOE-wide effort to accelerate research, development, and deployment of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies, including enhanced rock weathering, to achieve a cost of less than $100 per net metric ton of CO2-equivalent by 2032.

Funding Notice: Carbon Negative Shot Pilots | Department of Energy Funding Notice: Carbon Negative Shot Pilots Office : Carbon Management FOA number : DE-FOA-0003082 Download the full funding opportunity : FedConnect Funding Amount : $100,000,000 On October 18, 2024 , the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM), with DOE’s Hydrogen Fuel Cell Technologies Office (HFTO), today announced more than $58.
5 million in federal funding for 11 projects to help develop a commercially viable carbon dioxide removal industry in the United States. The funding will support pilot projects and testing facilities to demonstrate and scale carbon dioxide removal technologies that reduce carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) pollution by removing it directly from the atmosphere.
To support an emerging and necessary carbon dioxide removal industry, in 2021 DOE launched the Carbon Negative Shot —the U.S. government’s first major carbon dioxide removal effort. Part of DOE’s larger Energy Earthshots Initiative , the Carbon Negative Shot is a Department-wide call for crosscutting innovation and commercialization of a wide range of carbon dioxide removal technologies and approaches.
This Earthshot sets the portfolio-wide goal of reducing the cost of removing CO 2 from the atmosphere to less than $100 per net metric ton of CO 2 -equivalent by 2032, together with robust measurement, monitoring, reporting, and verification and secure storage.
This funding opportunity announcement aims to support Carbon Negative Shot objectives across carbon dioxide removal pathways through integrated pilot-scale testing of advanced technologies and detailed monitoring, reporting, and verification protocols.
The selected projects will aim to support Carbon Negative Shot objectives across carbon dioxide removal pathways through integrated pilot-scale testing of advanced technologies and detailed monitoring, reporting, and verification protocols.
HFTO will manage the following project that supports small-scale biomass carbon removal and storage technology: DOE’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), under the purview of FECM, will manage the remaining 10 projects.
Four of these projects will also support small-scale biomass carbon removal and storage technology: Arbor Energy and Resources Corporation Carbon Lockdown Project Benefit LLC Four projects will support enhanced mineralization technologies: Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University Two projects will support testbed facilities suitable for evaluating, developing, and integrating multiple carbon dioxide removal pathways across different ecosystems, climates, and communities: Arizona Board of Regents on behalf of Arizona State University University of North Dakota Energy & Environmental Research Center A detailed list of the selected projects can be found here .

On August 24, 2026, DOE and SBA signed a memorandum of agreement creating the Small Business Investment Company-Energy Initiative, pointing a $58 billion SBA-leveraged investment program at DOE's technology priorities. No application, no NOFO, no deadline. Here is how SBIC capital actually works, why a January 2026 rule change made this possible, and what a company sitting on a DOE Phase II award should do about it.
Read articleThe Hydrocarbons and Geothermal Energy Office's University Training and Research program funds coal, oil and gas, and geothermal R&D at U.S. colleges and universities — but every proposal must include a non-academic partner and must build training modules that outlive the award. The LOI deadline is October 1, 2026, with full applications 15 days later. Here is what that compressed window means and why the workforce framing changes what a competitive proposal looks like.
Read articleOn April 20, 2026, the White House declared grid, natural gas, LNG, petroleum, and coal 'essential to national defense,' unlocking DPA Title III loans, loan guarantees, and purchase commitments through DOE. Here is how this non-traditional financing works, who qualifies, why the September 30 sunset matters, and how energy companies and their supply chains should position now.
