The complete RFI can be accessed on the EERE Exchange website at https://eere-exchange.energy.gov/ The purpose of this RFI is to solicit feedback from industry, academia, research laboratories, government agencies, and other stakeholders on issues related to non-powered dams and pumped storage hydropower. EERE is particularly interested in information on challenges related to development, market variability, and how technology affects deployment. This is solely a request for information and not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). As a follow on to this RFI, DOEâ₏™s Hydropower Program intends to hold a public workshop where questions in the RFI will be circulated and discussed with attendees. Details regarding this workshop will be provided in a subsequent public notice. This RFI is not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA); therefore, EERE is not accepting applications at this time.
