FY24 Cross-Sector Technologies Funding Opportunity Announcement | Department of Energy FY24 Cross-Sector Technologies Funding Opportunity Announcement Office: Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization Office Available Funding: $38 million FOA Number: DE-FOA-0003205 Cross-Sector Technologies Industrial Technologies Website The Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization Office (IEDO) announced a $38 million funding opportunity focused on cross-sector technologies for industrial energy efficiency.
Through this funding opportunity, IEDO seeks high-impact, applied research, development, and pilot demonstration (RD&D) projects that will help drive the transformational cross-sector technologies and innovations required to reduce energy use and emissions across the industrial sector.
The projects selected for this funding opportunity will advance the energy economy, bolster the technological and economic competitiveness of domestic manufacturing, and boost the viability and competitiveness of U.S. industrial technology exports.
This funding opportunity is part of DOE’s Technologies for Industrial Emissions Reduction Development (TIEReD) Program —an integrated, industrial energy efficiency technology development strategy for DOE’s basic and applied research offices.
Underpinned by the principles identified in the 2022 Industrial Decarbonization Roadmap , DOE is building an innovation pipeline to accelerate the development and adoption of industrial energy efficiency technologies with funding spanning foundational science; RD&D; and technical assistance and workforce development.
This FOA will also advance the goal of the Industrial Heat Shot ™, which aims to develop cost-competitive industrial heating technologies with at least 85% lower emissions by 2035.
Topic 1 – Electrification of Industrial Heat Process heating, or thermal processing, is essential to the manufacture of a wide variety of industrial and consumer products, supplying the thermal energy needed to transform materials by drying, curing, melting, forming, sintering, calcining, and smelting.
In 2018, process heating accounted for 31% of sectoral energy use and 51% of sectoral energy-related emissions—trends that are mirrored across numerous manufacturing subsectors. This topic focuses on high-impact opportunities in the development of equipment and components for thermal processes across the industrial sector, including electrotechnologies (Area of Interest 1) and industrial heat pumps (Area of Interest 2).
Topic 2 – Efficient Energy Use in Industrial Systems Innovations in energy systems are needed at multiple levels to reduce the energy and emissions intensity of industrial operations. These innovations include both improvements to established, foundational technologies as well as development of totally new approaches to production.
At the process level, new alternative process technologies are needed to reduce thermal demand and resulting emissions; plant-level energy use can be optimized through efficient management of materials and energy using integrated systems of advanced sensors, controls, data platforms, and efficient process equipment; and industrial facilities can contribute to energy systems outside the plant while simultaneously improving their own resiliency, emissions intensity, and operating economics by adopting technologies to enable more flexible operations.
From this range of priorities, this topic focuses on equipment for low thermal budget separations (Area of Interest 1: Advanced Membrane Separations) and for thermal management (Area of Interest 2: Industrial Heat Exchangers).
Topic 3 – Energy Efficiency for Organic Wastewater and Wet Waste Treatment The EPA estimates direct emissions from water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs) at approximately 44 MMT CO2e with additional indirect emissions from energy usage, sludge transportation, and associated methane releases from landfills.
Agricultural organic wastes and wastewaters, which are significant contributors to agricultural emissions, and food wastes, including both post-consumer wastes and wastes from food and beverage manufacturing, represent another set of energy recovery and emission reduction opportunities.
This topic focuses on energy efficiency in unit processes for treating wet organic waste from municipal, industrial, and agricultural sources, particularly those that have additional co-benefits such as nutrient recovery, energy neutrality, and cost minimization.

The Department of Energy's Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation is spending to break America's 95% dependence on foreign rare earths. The strategy is unusual: recover critical materials from the waste streams of coal plants, smelters, and refineries that already exist. Here is the full funding architecture — the $75M just awarded, the $500M battery-materials round, the $1B pipeline behind them — and how an industrial operator should position for what comes next.
Read articleOn June 2, 2026, the Department of Energy's Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation selected two demonstration-scale facilities — Phoenix Tailings (with MIT and the University of Minnesota) for $66 million, and the Colorado School of Mines (with ElementUSA, PNNL, Principal Mineral, and Rare Earth Technologies Inc.) for the balance — under the Rare Earth Elements Demonstration Facility Program. Both projects pull rare earths from industrial waste — red mud at the Gramercy refinery in Louisiana, and a mix of mine and refining tailings elsewhere. Here is what the selections tell researchers, small businesses, and downstream magnet customers about where DOE thinks the chokepoint actually is, and what to do before the next demonstration-scale solicitation opens.
Read articleOn September 21, 2026 DOE selected 21 projects under DE-FOA-0003472 — five EGS field tests and 16 exploration wells — for up to $99 million of a $171.5 million authorization. The solicitation is structured to reopen for up to 72 months on roughly annual cycles. Here is how to position for the next one.
