Energy Department Selects Projects to Receive $15M for Storage Technologies. The U.S. Department of Energy''s (DOE) Office of Electricity (OE) today announced the selectees of $15 million in awards to show that new Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) technologies will work reliably and cost effectively in the field. May 15, 2024.

– The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced $14.5 million in available funding to leverage existing low-carbon energy to scale-up direct air capture (DAC) technology combined with reliable carbon storage. DAC, a carbon dioxide removal approach, is a process that separates carbon dioxide (CO2) from ambient air.

The sites identified have a combined energy storage potential of around 163,000 GWh. To put this into perspective, a transition to a 100% renewable electricity system would need 450 GWh of PHES storage. The potential pumped hydro energy storage resource is almost 300 times more than required.

Other types of renewable energy and storage technologies are also eligible for the ITC but are beyond the scope of this webpage. Solar systems that are placed in service in 2022 or later and begin construction before 2033 are eligible for a 30% ITC or a 2.75 ¢/kWh [3] PTC if they meet labor requirements issued by the Treasury Department [4] or
