Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations | Department of Energy Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations Deliver clean energy demonstration projects at scale in partnership with the private sector to accelerate deployment and market adoption.
Applicant & Award Resources OCED is a multi-technology office with demonstrations that include clean hydrogen, carbon management, advanced nuclear reactors, long-duration energy storage, industrial demonstrations, demonstrations in rural areas and on current and former mine land, and more. The Liftoff Enabling Programs support the replication, market liftoff, and deployment of OCED’s clean energy technologies.
Liftoff Enabling Programs The Advanced Nuclear projects will speed up the demonstration of advanced reactors through cost-shared partnerships with U.S. industry. These innovative nuclear technologies are ideally sized and designed to provide flexible electricity output and as process heat for a wide range of industrial heat applications as well as desalination and hydrogen production.
Advanced Reactor Demonstrations Program The Carbon Management portfolio contains three programs: the Carbon Capture Demonstration Projects Program, the Carbon Capture Large-Scale Pilot Programs, and Regional Direct Air Capture Hubs.
These new programs will help accelerate the demonstration and deployment of carbon management technologies, supporting efforts to create good-paying manufacturing jobs, reduce pollution to deliver healthier communities, and reinforce America’s global competitiveness in the clean energy technologies of the future.
Carbon Capture Demonstration Projects Program Carbon Capture Large-Scale Pilot Projects The Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs (H2Hubs) will kickstart a national network of clean hydrogen producers, consumers, and connective infrastructure while supporting the production, storage, delivery, and end-use of clean hydrogen.
Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs The Industrial Demonstrations Program (IDP) will accelerate projects in energy-intensive industries and provide American manufacturers a competitive advantage in the race to lead the world in low- and no carbon manufacturing. This program will be a central driver in helping solidify a “first-mover” advantage for U.S. industry, bolstering its competitiveness globally for decades into the future.
Industrial Demonstrations Program The Renewables & Grid portfolio includes Distributed Energy Systems, Long-Duration Enery Storage, Clean Energy Demonstration Program on Current and Former Mine Land, and Energy Improvement in Rural or Remote Areas.

Past winners and funding trends for this program
The Department of Defense FY2026 Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) provides funding for U.S. universities to acquire research equipment and instrumentation in areas important to national defense, including AI and machine learning hardware. The program is administered jointly by the Army Research Office (ARO), Office of Naval Research (ONR), and Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), with approximately $34 million available and 95 awards anticipated. DURIP funds the acquisition of specialized computing hardware for AI/ML research (GPU clusters, TPUs, neuromorphic processors), robotics and autonomous systems testbeds, sensor arrays and data collection systems for machine learning training, high-performance computing infrastructure for defense-relevant AI research, and laboratory equipment for human-AI interaction studies. The program specifically supports equipment that enhances research-related education in DoD-priority disciplines. While general-purpose computing is not eligible, computing equipment directly supporting DoD-relevant AI research programs qualifies. No cost sharing is required.
Vinnova, Sweden's national innovation agency, funds projects developing applied AI solutions for Swedish industry through its Advanced Digitalization Programme. Each project can apply for between 2 and 10 million SEK (approximately $190,000 to $950,000 USD) covering up to 50% of eligible project costs. The total call budget is 60 million SEK. Projects run for 12-24 months and focus on two key areas: Intelligent Edge (AI for real-time application in the sensor chain) and AI-based decision support. All projects must address industrial needs and integrate gender equality and climate change perspectives. Scientific publications must be open access. A parallel call also funds AI and cybersecurity projects at 1-10 million SEK per project with a 50 million SEK total budget.
Executive Order 14421, signed August 26 and published in the Federal Register on August 31, 2026, prohibits acquisition or installation of covered foreign-produced bulk-power equipment — and applies notwithstanding any contract signed beforehand. DOE implementing rules are due by December 24. Here is what it means if federal grant or loan dollars are paying for the hardware.
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.
