This is solely a request for information and not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). EERE is not accepting applications through this RFI. DOE will not respond to questions regarding this RFI. For this RFI, the Department of Energy (DOE) Geothermal Technologies Office (GTO) seeks input on three (3) categories to encourage increased development of geothermal resources through recovery of dissolved critical materials. The first category is to explore the opportunities to conduct extensive engineering validation testing of feasible technologies or processes that can efficiently and cost-effectively capture, concentrate, and/or purify high-value materials, that may be contained in geothermal fluids and process streams. GTO seeks to broaden the assessment of available or possible approaches by exploring methodologies that ...
