The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to The Chemours Company (Chemours) for the manufacturing and testing of high performing membranes for proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers (PEMWE) via roll to roll (R2R) manufacturing. Manufacturing of the membranes would occur at a Frontier Industrial Technology coating facility in Towanda, PA. Membrane evaluation would occur at Chemours’ R&D facility in Newark, DE, as well as the Los Alamos National Lab in Los Alamos, NM. Additionally, collaboration is expected to occur with the HydroGEN Energy Materials Network Consortium as needed to facilitate project success. Any work proposed to be conducted at a federal facility may be subject to additional NEPA review by the cognizant federal official and must meet the applicable health and safety requirements of the facility.
