DOE awarding more than $50M to 15 projects to advance critical material innovations The US Department of Energy (DOE) is awarding more than $50 million in funding for 15 projects focused on field validation and demonstration as well as next-generation extraction, separation, and processing technologies for critical materials. Critical materials are used in many products important to the US economy and energy technologies, such as rare-earth elements used to manufacture high-strength magnets for offshore wind-turbine generators and lithium and cobalt in lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles. Projects selected under this funding opportunity announcement will reduce both the costs of critical materials and the environmental impacts of production. The projects are divided into two main topic areas:
